{"product_id":"blackness-and-value-lindon-barrett-9780521109956","title":"Blackness and Value: Seeing Double","description":"Blackness and Value investigates the principles by which \"value\" operates, and asks if it is useful to imagine that the concepts of racial blackness and whiteness in the United States operate in terms of these principles. Testing these concepts by exploring various theoretical approaches and their shortcomings, Lindon Barrett finds that the gulf between \"the street\" (where race is acknowledged as a powerful enigma) and the literary academy (where until recently it has not been) can be understood as a symptom of racial violence. While commonly approaches to race and value are examined historically or sociologically, this intriguing study provides a new critical approach that speaks to theorists of race as well as gender and queer studies.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lindon Barrett\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0521109957\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780521109956\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/30\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.94lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.65d","brand":"Lindon Barrett","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44119782031615,"sku":"9780521109956","price":46.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ea516b15-747f-46ca-9bf8-7441bffb932e.jpg?v=1687410914","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blackness-and-value-lindon-barrett-9780521109956","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
