Race, Identity and Citizenship A Reader

This book provides an interdisciplinary series of comparative analyses of race, ethnicity and culture at a time when boundaries designating racialized groups are being radically redrawn. In recent years, race and ethnicity have become the focus of theoretical, political and policy debates. Particular attention has focused on how best to conceptualize racism(s) and racialized relations in the context of demographic shifts, changing class formations and new forms of global dislocations. This volume moves beyond the black/white focus to address with analytical rigor the diversity of racialized identities and histories and thus provide a state of the art commentary on the theorization of this field. This comprehensive and timely reader covers a range of topics including critical race theory, multiracial feminism, mixed race, the whiteness debates, citizenship and globalization. The contributors include Angela Davis, Stuart Hall, Richard Delgado, Robert Miles, Michael Eric Dyson, Saskia Sassen, Etienne Balibar, Patricia Hill Collins, Renato Rosaldo, Stanley Aronowitz, and Collette Guillaumin.
