ABSTRACT
This chapter explores the processes of racialization and the discursive construction of new racialized identities, with an eye to the role of these constructions on existing ideologies of race, language, and ethnicity. Academic discourse has attempted to find an underlying unit that allows us to know when we are faced with race or racism in its varied forms. Scholars have defined racialized thought as that which classifies and hierarchizes people and social groups on the basis of their phenotypic, biological, genetic, hereditary or innate features. Huayhua shows how racialized identities appear in exchanges that, in the place of using phenotypical categories such as indio, cholo, or mestizo, produce racialized attributes such as "animal," "disobedient," "peasant," "ignorant," and "badly educated." J. Daniels undertook an exhaustive review of how the development of the Internet and the computer industry were dominated by racialized discourses, as well as by the complete ignorance of the racial content of these discourses.
