Summary and analysis of The Cosmic Race by Jose Vasconcelos
The fragment from The Cosmic Race discusses the future of the world and the contributions that the different races bring. It was published in1925 by Jose Vasconcelos, a Mexican philosopher. The main argument in The Cosmic Race is that the continuous mixing of the races will produce one cosmic race. The Cosmic Race is divided into three parts. The first one is titled “Mestizaje.” It explores the myths and misconceptions of the emergence and the collapse of the Atlantis in America, aiming to demonstrate that races rise and disappear. According to the author, there are four primary races: Indians, Africans, Whites, and Mongols. Vasconcelos adds Mestizo as the fifth race.After civilization, the white race organized itself, took over the world, and controlled it. However, Vasconcelos says that the whites act as a bridge to a more significant race, the Mestizo.
