Críticas

'A balanced and largely successful attempt at mapping the historical origins of 'race' and racism, the changing signification of 'race' during the 20th century, and its current place within contemporary social theory. The engagement with the work of scholars on anti-Semitism is a welcome departure for a book on racism, and the further inclusion of questions concerning cultural identity and ethnicity - often ignored in more orthodox accounts of racism - gives the collection as a whole a distinctiveness and greater contemporary relevance.' - Sociological Research Online - http://socresonline.org.uk
