El artículo estudia el proceso histórico mediante el cual la música y la danza provenientes de África y Europa se mezclaron en los llamados "ritmos nacionales", configurando las identidades nacionales en América Latina. Este proceso implicó en cada país complejas negociaciones en asuntos de raza, etnicidad, género y clase social. A manera de ejemplo, el autor profundiza en el ritmo nacional conocido como el candombe uruguayo, pieza central del Carnaval anual de Montevideo desde mediados de 1800. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR];
