Legal Identity, Race and Belonging in the Dominican Republic

Viac o knihe

Focusing on legal identity practices, the book critiques policies from institutions like the World Bank and UN that promote mass registration of native-born migrant-descended populations. It highlights the potential consequences of these policies, particularly how they can challenge established identities and entitlements by raising complex issues of nationality. This cautionary tale serves as a warning about the implications of such legal frameworks on communities and their historical contexts.
