Twenty years since the publication of the Second Edition and
more than thirty years since the publication of the original book,
"Racial Formation in the United States" now arrives with each
chapter radically revised and rewritten by authors Michael Omi and
Howard Winant, but the overall purpose and vision of this classic
remains the same: Omi and Winant provide an account of how concepts
of race are created and transformed, how they become the focus of
political conflict, and how they come to shape and permeate both
identities and institutions. The steady journey of the U.S. toward
a majority nonwhite population, the ongoing evisceration of the
political legacy of the early post-World War II civil rights
movement, the initiation of the war on terror with its attendant
Islamophobia, the rise of a mass immigrants rights movement, the
formulation of race/class/gender intersectionality theories, and
the election and reelection of a black President of the United
States are some of the many new racial conditions "Racial
Formation" now covers."
