Race and the Politics of the Exception

Meer over het boek

Exploring the intersection of race and politics, Utz McKnight challenges the notion that race is merely an individual belief system. He argues for its inherent political nature within the context of the United States, analyzing significant African American fiction that reflects various periods of racial politics. By integrating earlier political theories, McKnight presents a refined argument for a new critical understanding of race's political implications. This groundbreaking work will resonate with scholars in political theory, identity politics, and African American studies.
