Afroeuropeans: Identities, Racism, and Resistances reflects on the tensions, ambiguities, and paradoxes of Blackness in Europe.The book addresses relations of domination and modes of racial exclusion, but also Afro-European interventions in the political, social, cultural, and artistic spheres, and the multiple resistances that have sustained Black bodies in the European continent. At the same time as Black histories, cultures, and social conditions are made invisible in hegemonic accounts in Europe, there is a hypervisibility and presence of Black stereotyping in European popular culture. Black identities have become even more conditioned by new mainstream far-right discourses and the tightening immigrant and refugee policies that affect people of African descent. One of the book’s most innovative contributions is the attention it gives to Black South European thought, experiences, and resistance—particularly in the Portuguese context. This constitutes not only a critique Europe’s pervasive racism and "color blindness" policies but also makes a significant contribution to a broader understanding of Blackness and racism, extending beyond the U.S. and Northern European contexts.This book is forged in a moment of particularly strong Black intellectual and political vitality. Given the book’s intersectional and transdisciplinary approach, it will be an important go-to for students and researchers across the humanities and social sciences, as well as to artists, activists, politicians, and journalists.

In a context of polycrisis and lack of opportunities for youth emancipation, it is imperative to understand the socio-economic conditions, life experiences, practices and social representation of marginalised youth. Peripheral Creativities examines the intersection of urban segregation, creative practices, and public policies in understanding peripheral youth.Bringing together chapters from sociologists and other social science scholars across three continents, this edited collection addresses how creativity is mobilised by young people from marginalised neighbourhoods, as well as their influence on the (re)definition of the policies they are the target of. Associated with the PERICREATIVITY project based in Portugal, chapters bring together members of this project's team with researchers from other parts of the world, highlighting different contexts and perspectives on peripheral youth and the growing importance of their artistic practices in affirming positive identities and subverting stereotypes. The research emphasises how the power of these practices has been mobilised by the state as a resource for the governance of the urban margins with a view to youth participation, local development and social inclusion.This text contributes to the production of knowledge about the creativity of young people from segregated territories, as well as the public policies aimed at them with a core focus on the logic of urban segregation, social marginalisation and structural inequality.
