The book delves into the concept of "transculturation," coined by Fernando Ortiz, emphasizing its relevance in understanding cultural emergence from a peripheral viewpoint. It fosters a dialogue between Mediterranean and Caribbean scholars, addressing contemporary issues such as migration, territorial sovereignty, and cultural diversity. By revisiting Ortiz's mid-twentieth-century theories, the contributors aim to develop innovative analytical frameworks for both regions, while critically assessing the implications of Ortiz's ideas for modern anthropological research and theory.
