Based on the premise that the project of Western Modernity is a
structuring element of our societies, Racism and Racial
Surveillance explores in detail its legacies of coloniality and
racialization that interfere in a subtle and perverse way in the
current social, cultural and political systems. Guided by an
interdisciplinary methodology, the various contributions privilege
historical contexts of colonial formation and offer a thorough and
intersectional analysis on the specters of coloniality in the
upsurge of racism, surveillance, and criminalization, as well as
the presence of the phantom of the race in spaces of knowledge
production such as that of artistic field, forensic genetics and
criminal identification. Drawing on multi case studies the book
then proffers key concepts and historical background that will be
of interest to researchers, students and professionals in a broad
range of areas of social sciences and humanities research,
including fields such as criminology and policing, science and
technology studies, arts studies, literary studies, race and ethnic
studies and, finally, memory studies. Chapters 8, 9 and 10 of this
book is available for free in PDF format as Open Access from the
individual product page at www.routledge.com. It has been made
