Race and Ethnicity : Culture, Identity and Representation

這本經過全面修訂和更新的教科書是“種族”和種族問題和理論的重要指南。它展示了這些概念在殖民統治期間是如何形成的，以及它們如何成為社會認同和分裂的核心 - 直到最近，無可爭議的 - 方面。本書為學生詳細了解殖民地和後殖民地的建構，變化和種族挑戰作為社會分裂和不平等的根源。

借鑒澳大利亞，圭亞那，加拿大，馬來西亞，加勒比海，墨西哥，愛爾蘭和英國的豐富國際案例研究，該書清楚地解釋了用於種族動態的不同理論。這些都是嚴格審查的從基於生物的思想到批判的種族理論。這一關鍵文本包括關於改變多元文化，移民和恐怖主義恐懼的新材料，所有這些都經過嚴格評估。

這個學生友好的文本結合了摘要，逐章問題，插圖，練習和術語表，也為進一步的項目工作提出​​了建議。該書範圍廣泛，具有互動性和可訪問性，是社會科學中“種族”和種族的本科學生的重要資源。

Broad-ranging and comprehensive, this completely revised and updated textbook is a critical guide to issues and theories of `race' and ethnicity. It shows how these concepts came into being during colonial domination and how they became central - and until recently, unquestioned - aspects of social identity and division. This book provides students with a detailed understanding of colonial and post-colonial constructions, changes and challenges to race as a source of social division and inequality.

Drawing upon rich international case studies from Australia, Guyana, Canada, Malaysia, the Caribbean, Mexico, Ireland and the UK, the book clearly explains the different strands of theory which have been used to explain the dynamics of race. These are critically scrutinised, from biological-based ideas to those of critical race theory. This key text includes new material on changing multiculturalism, immigration and fears about terrorism, all of which are critically assessed.

Incorporating summaries, chapter-by-chapter questions, illustrations, exercises and a glossary of terms, this student-friendly text also puts forward suggestions for further project work. Broad in scope, interactive and accessible, this book is a key resource for undergraduate students of 'race' and ethnicity across the social sciences.
