Contesting racism: Democratic citizenship, human rights, and antiracist politics in Argentina

In Argentina, racism is a relatively hidden but entrenched social problem that has undermined democratic citizenship and social justice efforts. An analysis of ethno-racial discourses (by the state, in the media, and in self-identity representations) as well as political strategies for contesting racism reveals that civil society and governmental organizations have extended frameworks that already had resonance in Argentina, borrowed approaches from other places, and formulated strategies in the context of international dialogue.
