A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies

"A Companion to Racial and Ethnic Studies provides many indispensable materials for the study of race. Particularly valuable are the collection's comparative focus and its attention to a variety of challenging problems in the field: culture, technology, postcoloniality, whiteness, genocide, and ethnoreligious conflict are but some of the crucial themes considered here. This essential text will be adopted in courses everywhere."
Howard Winant, Temple University, and author of The World is a Ghetto

"The companion to racial and ethnic studies is able to bring together data from a wide variety of disciplines and scholars on a pressing and important subject. [...] This critical volume is an excellent reference." American Reference Books Annual 2003

"Overall, this companion adds greatly to the debates on race and ethnicity, past , present and future. It has that rare quality of being written in an accessible manner for students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, while also adding an innovative contribution to academic debate. Such an interdisciplinary volume will appeal to those working in a wide range of areas across the humanities and social sciences in both Europe and the USA." Ethnic and Racial Studies
