      abstract = {"In Cofradías Afrohispánicas [Afro-Hispanic  Confraternities], Manuel Apodaca Valdez offers an account  of forty-two confraternities of African descendants of the  colonial period, along with six contemporary  confraternities still alive in four geographical regions:  Spain, Perú, México, and the Dominican Republic. This  historical and comparative trans-Atlantic study analyzes  data gathered from archives and field work research. The  work shows evidence of the social, political, cultural, and  spiritual conditions of the peoples of African descent  integrated in confraternities during the colonial time.  Their legacy traced a path historically marked by hybridism  and transformation laying the foundation for contemporary  Afro-confraternities, a phenomenon interpreted by the  author as furtive resistance and celebration of cultural  identity."--},
