This is the new, fully updated edition of this now-classic study of
working-class racism. Combining classical Marxism, psychoanalysis
and the new labor history pioneered by E. P. Thompson and Herbert
Gutman, David Roediger's widely acclaimed book provides an original
study of the formative years of working-class racism in the United
States. This, he argues, cannot be explained simply with reference
to economic advantage; rather, white working-class racism is
underpinned by a complex series of psychological and ideological
mechanisms that reinforce racial stereotypes, and thus help to
forge the identities of white workers in opposition to blacks. In a
lengthy new introduction, Roediger surveys recent scholarship on
whiteness, and discusses the changing face of labor in the
twenty-first century.
