Abstract

This resource is a three-volume, A-Z encyclopedia, with some 600 essay entries. Entries, ranging from 1,000 to 5,000 words, fall into four main categories. Each entry will be followed by a brief list of selected further readings (in the case of Person entries, a brief list of the person's works will also be included). The main categories are: Minority entries (1,000-5,000 words; approximately 300 entries), the heart of the encyclopedia, which will cover particular ethnic, religious, and other groups, their histories, culture, and current political situation. Topic entries (1,000-5,000 words; approximately 100 entries), which will focus on broader theoretical and philosophical issues; military, political, and social organizations; legal doctrines; and other concepts. Biographic entries (1,000-2,000 words; approximately 65 entries), which will include major figures--past and present--in minority movements around the world. Country entries (1,000-5,000 words; approximately 165 entries), which will provide a political, historical, and demographic overview of the world's countries, with an emphasis on ethnic and cultural divisions.

Abstract

Broad-ranging and comprehensive, this incisive new textbook examines the shifting meanings of 'race' and ethnicity and collates the essential concepts in one indispensable companion volume. From Marxist views to post-colonialism, this book investigates the attendant debates, issues and analyses within the context of global change. Using international case studies from Australia, Malaysia, the Caribbean, Mexico and the UK and examples of popular imagery that help to explain the more difficult elements of theory, this key text focuses on everyday life issues such as: ethnic conflicts and polarised states; racism (s) and policies of multiculturalism; diasporas, asylum seekers and refugees; and, mixed race and hybrid identity. Incorporating summaries, questions, illustrations, exercises and a glossary of terms, this student-friendly text also puts forward suggestions for further project work. Broad in scope, interactive and accessible, this book is a key resource for undergraduate and postgraduate level students of 'race' and ethnicity across the social sciences.
