Fascistic candidates and ideas seem to reap the fruits of social unrest everywhere. With her usual thought-provoking and unyielding analyses, Houria Bouteldja shows how the history of the left explains this problem and how we can overcome it. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Drawing from Black radical and decolonial Marxism, she shows that privileging white constituencies, unions, and left parties laid the foundations for a racial contract that binds workers and people experiencing poverty to the state. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e However, there may still be a way out of this trap. Uniting 'rednecks' (the white working class) and 'savages' (the racially oppressed), will require a project of popular sovereignty, where national identity is reworked through revolutionary love. Looking to the future, Bouteldja pictures anti-racism as a redemptive struggle aimed not only at rehabilitating non-whites but also at redefining white dignity. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Houria Bouteldja\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0745349552\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780745349558\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Pluto Press (UK)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/20\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 192\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Houria Bouteldja","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46140925051135,"sku":"9780745349558","price":22.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_1c3ceefc-56d2-4271-a562-5bf24d5de5f8.jpg?v=1726597426","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/rednecks-and-barbarians-houria-bouteldja-9780745349558","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
