Six essays dealing with the science of the study of race, racial differences, race and psychology, and the impossibility of "cultural transference" between races, penned by the famous French anthropologist and founder of the science of crowd psychology, Doctor Gustave le Bon. "The Study of Races and Present-day Anthropology" points out that races can be clearly defined by obvious physical attributes alone, and that what "mainly differentiates races, quite as well from the point of view of civilization as from the anatomical point of view, is that some races] possess a certain number of individuals having very developed brains, whereas the others possess very few such individuals, or even do not possess any." "The Method of Averages in Anthropology" provides an insight into how "averages" are misrepresented by statisticians because an "average" can only be determined by examining like individuals, and not from any group with vastly differing characteristics. "On the Present Formation of a Race in the Tatras Mountains" shows how the process of natural selection as imposed by geographical isolation produces a uniform racial type. "Algeria and the Ideas Prevailing in France Concerning Colonization" discusses the disastrous route then French colonial policy was following in Algeria, and how French attempts to dominate the natives would only result in unending hatred. It also deals with the question of Islam and that religion's total opposition and utter incompatibility with European culture and civilization. It then moves on to a fascinating study of the racial elements which make up modern India. "In this paper I have indicated the dangers that exist in wanting to impose on a people the institutions, ideas, and needs of different peoples. I shall add, moreover, that this task is an absolutely impossible one and that no European nation will ever succeed in realizing it." "Applications of Psychology to the Classification of Races" discusses the inevitable destruction of all racial identity which will result from intermixture. "These moral and intellectual qualities determine the evolution of a people and the role that they play in history...they represent the entire heritage of a race, and are therefore the fundamental motive powers of direction. The institutions are created by these motive powers, and it is but only by them that they can be formed." "The Influence of Education and European Institutions on the Indigenous Populations of the Colonies" provides the clearest evidence yet that it is impossible to change the nature of a race by imposing upon them the cloak of another race's culture. This cloak will always remain a veneer, to be torn off once the real racial nature of the subjected population reasserts itself. All these essays were first published in the Review Scientifique, the official journal of the Anthropological Society of Paris, 1879 to 1881, and in the Review Philosophique, July 1886.

Описание: The Trump Paradox: Migration, Trade and Racial Politics in US-Mexico Relations explores one of the most complex and unequal cross-border relations anywhere in the world, in the light of a twenty-first century political economy generally and the rise of Donald Trump in particular. The book examines current US-Mexico relations through state-of-the-art analysis by scholars from both Mexico and the United States, sometimes working on binational teams. Organized into four sections, the first two chapters frame the trade and migration paradoxes that inform the exploration of these issues in the rest of the book. Politics has paradoxically stirred racial resentment around immigrants just as immigration from Mexico has reached net zero and without consideration for the trillion-plus contribution of Latinos to the US GDP. Indeed, a dilemma for rich and aging societies like the United States is that for their economies to continue flourishing, they need immigrants.

Описание: "Most Racial" starts where Michael Tesler and David Sears last book--"Obama s Race," the story of the 2008 presidential election leaves off. Tesler s new book will provide the definitive account of the role of racial attitudes in mass politics during the Obama presidency. It tells the story of how, when, and why a wide swath of Americans became significantly more polarized by racial considerations than they had been before Barack Obama s ascendancy and in spite of his administration s strenuous efforts to neutralize the political impact of race. Rather than ushering in a new, post-racial era, the first black presidency in history has ironically resulted in the most-racial era of modern times Marshalling a vast amount of observational and experimental survey data, Tesler shows how racial attitudes have spilled over to influence so many aspects of mass political decision making. These range from people s evaluations of presidential candidates and their partisan attachments, to seemingly non-racially related issues such as preferences about public policy and their subjective evaluations of objective economic conditions. Anti-black attitudes, for example, became a significantly stronger predictor of opposition to governmental health care after Obama became the face of the policy. Some people even had more positive feelings toward Obama s dog, Bo, when told it was John Kerry s dog. Most broadly, Tesler argues that this racialization of our politics is behind both a growing partisan division between racially liberal and racially conservative white and an expanding political divide between white and non-white Americans that could shape our politics for years to come. It is, according to our reviewer, certainly one of the most important books on racial politics to ever appear in the United States. "

Winner, 2020 Body and Embodiment Best Publication Award, given by the American Sociological Association Honorable Mention, 2020 Sociology of Sex and Gender Distinguished Book Award, given by the American Sociological Association How the female body has been racialized for over two hundred years There is an obesity epidemic in this country and poor black women are particularly stigmatized as “diseased” and a burden on the public health care system. This is only the most recent incarnation of the fear of fat black women, which Sabrina Strings shows took root more than two hundred years ago. Strings weaves together an eye-opening historical narrative ranging from the Renaissance to the current moment, analyzing important works of art, newspaper and magazine articles, and scientific literature and medical journals—where fat bodies were once praised—showing that fat phobia, as it relates to black women, did not originate with medical findings, but with the Enlightenment era belief that fatness was evidence of “savagery” and racial inferiority. The author argues that the contemporary ideal of slenderness is, at its very core, racialized and racist. Indeed, it was not until the early twentieth century, when racialized attitudes against fatness were already entrenched in the culture, that the medical establishment began its crusade against obesity. An important and original work, Fearing the Black Body argues convincingly that fat phobia isn’t about health at all, but rather a means of using the body to validate race, class, and gender prejudice.

Описание: Can affirmative action in US college admissions survive mounting threats? This judicious review, part of the Sociology of Diversity series, considers the question using up-to-date sociological, policy and legal perspectives to explain both sides of the fierce debate over affirmative action in the context of prominent Supreme Court cases.
Racialized Consciousness discusses how race, as an invention, has had profound consequences on the economic, political, and social conditions of humans across the world, particularly in the United States. Today, it continues to manifest in those conditions while shaping in no uncertain terms the way Americans view and interact with each other. Racialized Consciousness aims to supplement the extant body of literature by drawing the readers’ attention to the salient factors that compel them to embrace, more often than not, race as their primary purveyor of identity. Each chapter of Racialized Consciousness unfolds with a diachronic juxtaposition of racially motivated events, political developments, and historical and legal documents in symbiotically dialectical dialogues. Critical race theories both mediate and assess the extent to which their racialized consciousness has been liberated or deepened, either symbolically or materially. Critical race theories, as informed by the social sciences, legal studies, and social psychology, serve both as a bifocal lens to view and a dialectic interface to examine issues such as racism, xenophobia, anti-Semitism, white supremacy, white nationalism, black nationalism, Chicanos, discrimination, prejudice, slavery, mass incarceration, racial injustice, immigration, and Jim Crow; and concerns such as affirmative action, meritocracy, colorblindness, and micro-aggressions; and legacies of court cases such as Brown v. Board of Education, Plessy v. Ferguson, and Loving v. Virginia. The depth, acuity, multidimensionality, fairmindedness, breadth, lucidity, accessibility, theoretical perspectives, and resourcefulness of this book will expand and deepen discussions in sociology, political science, cultural studies, foundations, and social psychology courses. Students, professors, researchers, and librarians alike will want to read Racialized Consciousness and keep it handy, as they look back into one of most racially charged elections in 2016 and into the future where race, racial identities, and racial politics could potentially become more ubiquitous, complicated, and consequential.

Описание: After the 2008 election and 2012 reelection of Barack Obama as US president and the 1994 election of Nelson Mandela as the first of several blacks to serve as South Africa's president, many within the two countries have declared race to be irrelevant. For contributors to this volume, the presumed demise of race may be premature. Given continued racial disparities in income, education, and employment, as well as in perceptions of problems and promise within the two countries, much healing remains unfinished. Nevertheless, despite persistently pronounced disparities between black and white realities, it has become more difficult to articulate racial issues. Some deem ""race"" an increasingly unnecessary identity in these more self-consciously ""post-racial"" times.The volume engages post-racial ideas in both their limitations and promise. Contributors look specifically at the extent to which a church's contemporary response to race consciousness and post-racial consciousness enables it to give an accurate public account of race.
