Abstract

The author describes the racial ideologies that shaped migration to the Caribbean coastal regions of Costa Rica in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, as well as the way that social and economic processes within the export economy that developed there remade notions of race and belonging at the grassroots level. The rhetoric and practices constitutive of whiteness, blackness, indigeneity, and Chinese identity are all shown to be contested and multiple, although in varying degrees and with distinct consequences.
