Reviewing cutting-edge debates around racial politics and the culture and economy of globalization, this book draws together a wide range of important contemporary debates in a clear and concise way for undergraduate students. Far from concluding that racism is over, the authors contend that the forces of globalization inhabit older cultures of racial division in order to safeguard the economic interests of the privileged. Arguing that the unspoken culture of whiteness informs much that passes in the name of globalization, the book suggests that we are witnessing a reformulation of economic relations around global racisms. Alongside these shifts in economic relations, racialized identities evolve to encompass mixed heritages and mixed cultures both in personal identities and in lifestyle choices. This is one of the few texts that concentrates on the theory of race rather than politics. It looks at race in global terms, and at 'whiteness' as a part of ethnic studies.

Racialised Barriers: The Black Experience in the United States and England in the 1980's

Washington, D.C., proudly bears the name of our first president, who himself chose the city's site in 1785. The Revolutionary Fathers decided that the capital should be specially laid out instead of letting the city grow wild on its own. The task immediately fell to French engineer and architect Pierre Charles L'Enfant. His vision can still be clearly seen in the monumental center of Washington. This extraordinarily photographed book documents every quarter of the city and surrounding neighborhood. Full-color, aerial shots, commissioned specifically for this series, capture every monument, government building, museum, park, and avenue, which gives Washington its world famous reputation.

1998 - A simultaneously cooperative publishing venture between Roberts Books in Dublin and PRC Publishing in London. Fabulous 192-page hardcover volume, loaded with contemporary and vintage b&w photos throughout. Here is Ireland, from 1845 to 1945. Splendid history presented by a university lecturer. One of the better chronologies seen, dates provided in detail, in reference to political Ireland, the people of Ireland who have contributed to arts and literature, and the significant dates from 1912 onward, leading to revolution. This is flat-out one of the better books of its kind done on this country.
