Interrogating the Future of Puerto Rican Studies brings together emerging and established scholars from a wide range of disciplines to examine the disciplinary and epistemic transformations that have given way to new understandings of the field of Puerto Rican studies.
Documenting the intellectual contours that have shaped the field of Puerto Rican Studies in the last decade, a diverse range of contributors survey the field with new lenses that are attentive to gender, queerness, disability, and Blackness among other things.
A foreword by Yarimar Bonilla situates the volume in the context of the fieldβs shift, specifically in the aftermath of Hurricane Maria, while other sections, including βQueering Puerto Rican Studies,β βCentering Blackness,β and βDisaster Studies and Environmental Studies,β as well as βPuerto Rican Studies in Broader Fields of Knowledges,β βPrefigurative Politics and Social Movements,β and βLegal and Political Disruptions,β create a vibrant archive of conversations taking place within the field of Puerto Rican studies with the aim of interrogating its future.
