This second edition, with new forewords by historians Christopher Leslie Brown and Peter H. Wood, reminds us that Jordan's text is still the definitive work on the history of race in America in the colonial era.

The Socialist Response to Antisemitism in Imperial Germany
ISBN: 9780521153249 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Imperial Germany (1871-1918), most Socialists felt that the antisemites had a point but took matters too far. In fact, Social Democratic objections to the antisemitic movement often did not hinge on its anti-Jewish orientation at all. Even when they did, the Socialists' arguments generally acknowledged widespread anti-Jewish stereotypes rather than questioning them. By focusing on the many notions that antisemites and anti-antisemites in fact shared, and by introducing a range of new sources, this book presents a radical reinterpretation of the Socialist response to antisemitism in...

From Foreign Natives to Native Foreigners. Explaining Xenophobia in Post-apartheid South Africa. 2nd Ed
ISBN: 9782869783072 / Angielski / Miękka / 188 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The events of May 2008 in which 62 people were killed simply for being "foreign" and thousands were turned overnight into refugees shook the South African nation. This book is the first to attempt a comprehensive and rigorous explanation for those horrific events. It argues that xenophobia should be understood as a political discourse and practice. As such its historical development as well as the conditions of its existence must be elucidated in terms of the practices and prescriptions which structure the field of politics. In South Africa, the history of xenophobia is intimately connected...

"Given the racial complexity of the United States--not to mention the racism of its foundations and its persistence--why is it that the most influential white philosophers have not addressed the issue of race, its social construction and myth, and the problems it raises on a daily basis?" To answer this question, Roy Martinez, the editor of this volume, solicited contributions from eight of the most significant American philosophers working in the Continental and American pragmatist philosophical traditions. But there is no one answer: each contributor has a distinct perspective on the...
