Beskrivning

This Handbook is the first multidisciplinary anthology of research on antiracism in global historical perspective. It demonstrates the importance of a historical lens for understanding the deep lineages of antiracism and reveals the myriad ways—transracial, transnational, and transhistorical—that antiracism has shaped world history.Drawing on case studies from Africa, Asia, Australia, Europe, South America, and North America from the eighteenth century to the present, this volume situates antiracism across a variety of temporal, geographical, and ideological contexts that span the globe. By highlighting the perspectives of racially marginalized individuals and communities, it showcases the distinctiveness and importance of key thinkers, ideas, and methodologies in regional and national contexts. Further, by recovering complex histories, including memories and legacies, of antiracism, this Handbook illustrates how faultlines of race, class, and gender informed internal debates, priorities and outcomes. It emphasizes the creativity and labour of antiracist activism at the local and international levels.The Routledge Handbook on Antiracism in Global Historical Perspective ultimately underscores the diverse genealogies of antiracism and its transnational networks of political solidarity in order to contribute to future research and teaching as well as political praxis in the present. A vital resource for students, teachers, and activists alike, it presents a synthesis of some of the best work on antiracism to date by leading scholars, both emerging and internationally recognized, across the humanities and social sciences.This book was awarded the Outstanding Book Award at the 54th Annual Conference of the American Association for Ethnic Studies.

Approaching antiracism as a global phenomenon with deep historical roots, the editors have put together a fascinating collection that illuminates the extraordinary heterogeneity of anti-racist thought, movements and legislation. Bringing radical, indigenous and diasporic perspectives into conversation, the Routledge Handbook on Antiracism in Global Historical Perspective is at once a major educational resource and an important activists’ handbook.Professor Laura Chrisman, Nancy K. Ketcham Endowed Chair of English, Washington UniversityFramed in terms of the dialectical struggles between racism and antiracism the Routledge Handbook on Antiracism in Global Historical Perspective offers a wide-ranging collection of studies on histories of antiracism. The volume includes strong analyses of antiracism in long and well-documented contexts as well as those much less commonly discussed. In this it offers a compelling resource for both pedagogical and research purposes. A valuable resource, especially in our current moment, for understanding antiracism, historically and contemporarily.Professor David Theo Goldberg, Distinguished Professor University of California, IrvineDrawing on a global set of case studies, across two-hundred years, the Routledge Handbook on Antiracism in Global Historical Perspective gives us a vital, long overdue, account of how race and its opponents built the modern world. Never losing sight of the historic pliability of race, Alison Holland and Christopher J. Lee demonstrate that antiracism is as diverse and evolving as the system of control, domination and hierarchisation it opposes. This is activist history at its best.Dr Jon Piccini, Senior Lecturer, Australian Catholic University
