Weiss - Weisssein - Whiteness - Kritische Studien zu Gender und Rassismus- Critical Studies on Gender and Racism (English, German, Paperback, 2nd Revised edition)

Critical Whiteness Studies sind in angloamerikanischen Diskussionen zu Rassismus seit den 1980er Jahren etabliert. Dabei geht es nicht um den "rassisch" markierten "Anderen", sondern um kritische Reflexion zum weissen Subjekt rassistischer Praxis. Die "UEbersetzung" dieser Denkfigur auf deutsche/europaische Verhaltnisse ist noch in den Anfangen. Die Anthologie Weiss - Weisssein - Whiteness stellt aktuelle Forschungsarbeiten zu Interdependenzen von "Rasse" und Gender dar, in denen Weisssein eine zentrale Bezugsgroesse ist. Die Autorinnen arbeiten zu deutschen sowie zu internationalen Kontexten, wobei sie Weisssein aus unterschiedlichen disziplinaren und transdisziplinaren Perspektiven verhandeln. Critical Whiteness Studies have been established in the English speaking academic world as early as the 1980s. Instead of focusing on the racialized Other Critical Whiteness Studies reflect upon the racializing practices of the white subject. The 'translation' of this figure of thought into the German/European context is just beginning. The anthology Weiss - Weisssein - Whiteness presents recent research on the relevance of Whiteness at the intersection of race and gender. The authors work within the German context as well as in international contexts and they deal with the subject of Whiteness from different disciplinary as well as interdisciplinary perspectives.
