Recenzii

"An excellent sampling of scholarship in an emerging field. The multiracial dynamics of the formation of whiteness are well represented. And a sure mark of the maturity of the collection is the recurring, careful attention to the dynamics of race and gender." David Roediger, University of Missouri "This collection will be a substantial contribution to a current and growing body of materials investigating whiteness. As Frankenberg and the contributors know, recent work - even work that brackets whiteness in terms of class - has made little effort to specify the stunning range of particularity in the ways whiteness is experienced. This collection begins such a specification." Dana D. Nelson, University of Kentucky

Descriere

A unique contribution to the study of race dominance, DISPLACING WHITENESS breaks new ground by specifying how whiteness is lived, engaged, appropriated, and theorized in a range of geographical locations and historical moments--representing a necessary advance in analytical thinking surrounding the burgeoning study of race and culture.
