Race Reviews

Race offers a diverse and profound examination of the idea of race in the continental tradition, from Kant to contemporary theorists. Perspectives include phenomenology, feminism, multiculturalism, existentialism, and Africana Studies. A valuable research tool for scholarship in race and continental philosophy. Naomi Zack, University at Albany, SUNY This collection provides a valuable new perspective on one of the most vexing issues of the modern era. Bernasconi is to be commended. Albert Mosley, Smith College This excellent and wide--ranging anthology is certain to enrich and enliven contemporary philosophical discussion of the concept of race.
