Controversies
in race and ethnicity cannot be fully understood through a single
analytical lens or disciplinary approach. Such issues require
sustained, collaborative analysis—drawing on insights from law to
history, from sociology to literature, from labor studies to
anthropology, from political science to health-related scholarship, and
from biology to cultural studies. Focusing primarily on edited volumes,
the series aims to bring multiple theories, methods, and approaches to
bear on how racial and ethnic politics, identity, culture, structures,
and social relations function in the modern world. Through innovative
critical commentary and sustained policy engagement, this series
encourages scholarship aimed at expanding and deepening the study of
these issues in the United States and around the globe. Organized by
the Rutgers Center for Race and Ethnicity, the series is an outgrowth
of the breadth, depth, and strength of the field at the University and
is committed to new collaborative scholarship that bridges boundaries.
Readers will find a deep and expansive understanding of the intricate
and often unrecognized ways in which race and ethnicity shapes and is
shaped by modern societies.
