Lusofonia and its Futures
Editor - João Cezar de Castro Rocha (Universidade do Estado do Rio de Janeiro)

Lusofonia and Its Futures is a richly textured collection of essays on the Lusophone (Portuguese-speaking) world, comprised of over 230 million people in eight countries on four continents. The notion of Lusofonia encompasses the cultural identities generated by Portuguese speakers with shared as well as divergent histories. This volume presents a nuanced and critical study of the concept and history of Lusofonia from a variety of theoretical approaches.
