With a sweeping look at the European expansionism and racism of the last five hundred years, Charles W. Mills demonstrates how this peculiar and unacknowledged \"contract\" has shaped a system of global European domination: how it brings into existence \"whites\" and \"non-whites,\" full persons and sub-persons, how it influences white moral theory and moral psychology; and how this system is imposed on non-whites through ideological conditioning and violence. The Racial Contract argues that the society we live in is a continuing white supremacist state.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs this 25th anniversary edition--featuring a foreword by Tommy Shelbie and a new preface by the author--makes clear, the still-urgent \u003ci\u003eThe Racial Contract\u003c\/i\u003e continues to inspire, provoke, and influence thinking about the intersection of the racist underpinnings of political philosophy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Charles W.
