Beskrivning

Whiteness is a collection of outstanding essays that employs a range of approaches to understanding whiteness a communication phenomenon. Contributors use analyses of media representations, social scientific data, poststructuralist theoretical discussions, and post-colonial critiques of whiteness. Included as well are discussions of some of the ways whiteness is enacted through commemorations, white antiracist rhetoric, pedagogy, and personal narratives that highlight the cultural politics of whiteness. Thomas K. Nakayama and Judith N. Martin conclude with specific claims out white identity and about the ways multi-methodological approaches to communication offer new insights into research. Both timely and intriguing, this collection of articles will further our understanding of intercultural communication.
