"Diversité", "lutte contre les discriminations", "statistiques ethniques" : autant d'expressions qui, depuis les années 2000, n'ont cessé d'alimenter la controverse au sein de la sphère publique française. Dans ce contexte, les domaines audiovisuel et cinématographique ont été au coeur des préoccupations et la question de la représentation des dites "minorités visibles" a été particulièrement polémique. Inversant les termes habituels du débat français autour de la "diversité", cet ouvrage propose d'interroger la construction sociale de la blanchité. Ce concept anglo-américain, né à la fin des années 1980 et presque complètement ignoré en France, désigne un mode de problématisation des rapports de race : l'étude des modalités dynamiques par lesquelles des individus ou groupes peuvent adhérer ou être assignés à une "identité blanche" socialement gratifiante. Entre études historiques novatrices sur l'articulation entre capitalisme et racisme et enquêtes sociologiques consacrées à l'hégémonie blanche, Dans le blanc des yeux rend ainsi compte des débats qui ont renouvelé la conceptualisation du racisme et pose à nouveaux frais la question de la dimension racialisante des représentations médiatiques.

How do people produce and reproduce identities? In How Americans Make Race, Clarissa Rile Hayward challenges what is sometimes called the 'narrative identity thesis': the idea that people produce and reproduce identities as stories. Identities have greater staying power than one would expect them to have if they were purely and simply narrative constructions, she argues, because people institutionalize identity-stories, building them into laws, rules, and other institutions that give social actors incentives to perform their identities well, and because they objectify identity-stories, building them into material forms that actors experience with their bodies. Drawing on in-depth historical analyses of the development of racialized identities and spaces in the twentieth-century United States, and also on life-narratives collected from people who live in racialized urban and suburban spaces, Hayward shows how the institutionalization and objectification of racial identity-stories enables their practical reproduction, lending them resilience in the face of challenge and critique.

How is it that recipients of white privilege deny the role they play in reproducing racial inequality? Racing for Innocence addresses this question by examining the backlash against affirmative action in the late 1980's and early 1990's-just as courts, universities, and other institutions began to end affirmative action programs. This book recounts the stories of elite legal professionals at a large corporation with a federally mandated affirmative action program, as well as the cultural narratives about race, gender, and power in the news media and Hollywood films.
