Kennedy to Barack Obama--the historical development of racial doctrine has been closely connected to the relationship between radical and conservative politics. This book compares different forms of racism and anti-racism in the United States and Great Britain from the 19th century to today, situating the development of racial doctrine within the political movements of the modern capitalist world order.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eIn conversation with current debates, this work places the treatment of racialized human beings within a wider dynamic of capitalist exploitation. It unpacks the influence of anti-emancipatory thought on \"race relations,\" and argues that there is a consensus of thought across the political spectrum underpinned by the contemporary acceptance of the impossibility of human emancipation. Ultimately, \u003ci\u003eRace Defaced\u003c\/i\u003e is a heretical intervention into questions of race and racism that challenges both conservative and radical orthodoxies.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Rodolfo Torres, Christopher Kyriakides\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0804763348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780804763349\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanford University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/05\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 256\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2013","brand":"Rodolfo Torres","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46250448552191,"sku":"9780804763349","price":130.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7e148f89-faaf-4575-9b13-ae2c6bce53f1.jpg?v=1729600351","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/race-defaced-rodolfo-torres-9780804763349","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
