Although historians and literary theorists have long participated
in discussions about race, it is only recently that philosophers
have returned to the topic. The main focus of their attention has
been the question of what one means by race now that its biological
basis has been discredited, and under what conditions a
non-essentialist concept of race can be sustained.
This volume provides an introduction to the concept of race
within philosophy. It gives an overview of the most important
contributions by continental philosophers to the understanding of
race - focusing on Kant, Du Bois, Senghor, and Sartre - as well as
presenting a general review of recent philosophical discussions. In
addition, it moves the debate forward by including new
contributions by some of today's leading theorists.
