The second edition of The Routledge Companion to Race and Ethnicity
offers readers a broad overview of scholarly exploration of the
ways that humans have organized themselves (and have been
organized) according to racial and ethnic divisions. More than 80
scholars from around the world and representing multiple academic
traditions contribute entries to this accessible yet sophisticated
volume that addresses contemporary issues in historical context.
The first half of the book challenges readers to grapple with some
of the most controversial aspects of categorization, prejudice and
discrimination through focused chapters ranging from the notion of
Whiteness to the supposed biological rationale for racial
categorization. The second half is comprised of 70 shorter entries
on specialized concepts, persons and groups that are crucial to
understanding these issues. Taken as a whole, this volume provides
a broad, multi-disciplinary and global overview of issues that
continue to provide challenges to notions of equality and justice.
