{"product_id":"race-and-racism","title":"Race and Racism","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe eighteen essays in this new book deal with the meaning of two highly contested ideas: race and racism.  Race is variously declared to be a self-evident fact of nature, a natural kind, a biological category, a political category, a social construction, an invention, and a fiction.  Similarly, although racism is commonly defined as colour prejudice, some maintain that it is ill-will towards certain races; others that it is a belief, or sometimes an ideology or\n\u003cbr\u003etheory of racial superiority and inferiroity; and still others that it is the practice of unjust racial discrimination.  In this volume, Bernard Boxill has collected a wide range of\n\u003cbr\u003eanalytical writing that discusses the nature of these controversial ideas.  With an introduction exploring the themes and conflicting ideas present in the book, and including a previously unpublished piece on the alleged racism of Immanuel Kant, this book will stimulate a critical understanding of the true meaning and far-reaching implications of an understanding of race and racism.  As part of the successful Oxford Readings in Philosophy series, this book engages the\n\u003cbr\u003ereader with a range of ideas that will contribute to a greater understanding of race and racism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43968552501486,"sku":"9780198752677","price":102.98,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0630\/9612\/7726\/files\/9780198752677.jpg?v=1706246620","url":"https:\/\/bookland.com.au\/products\/race-and-racism","provider":"Book Land AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
