Philosophy of Race

Part II addresses race as it operates in life through colonialism and development, social constructions and institutions, racism, political philosophy, and gender. This book constructs an outline that will serve as a resource for students, nonspecialists, and general readers in thinking, talking, and writing about philosophy of race.Philosophy of Race: An Introduction is written by Naomi Zack and published by Palgrave Macmillan.
