Reviews"A Global View of Race and Racism is an engaging and comprehensive supplemental text to include in a course on race and ethnicity. It goes well beyond some of the 'typical' explanations and examples of race and ethnicity and will help to broaden students' world view. This is an excellent and much needed text in this field of study!"--Janese Free, Emmanuel College "Very few books have captivated me as did this book. It is comprehensive, articulately written, solid in concepts and theory, and panoramic in examples of the intersection of race, globalization and globalism."--Chikwendu Christian Ukaegbu, University of Wyoming "A Global View of Race and Racism identifies and analyzes race and racism from multiple dimensions from a global perspective with interesting and engaging historical information that has contemporary relevancy."--Bobby A.

SynopsisA Global View of Race and Racism is the only text currently on the market that explores race and racism from a global perspective. With a clear and direct writing style, author Judy Root Aulette places an emphasis on sociological concepts as an organizing factor. Featuring nine short chapters focused on a broad range of nations around the world, this brief text examines central concepts and issues in racial/ethnic studies including apartheid, assimilation, colonialism, multi-ethnicity, caste, ethnonationalism, white frames, genocide, migration, and affirmative action. Each chapter discusses the ways in which racist structures and practices have been or are being challenged. Chapters also include critical thinking questions and highlighted key concepts and terms, which are summarized in a glossary at the end of the book.
