Description: A signal work in contemporary race theory and the study of nationalism, Race, Nation, Class brings the conditions of presentday racism into focus. Situating racial and ethnic relations within the social structures maintained by nationalist ideologies, class interests, and veiled conflicts, Balibar and Wallerstein illustrate racism's particularity as both symptom and tool in capitalism's latest stage of development. Packed with clear-sighted historical analysis and productive debates, this book marks a major shift in Western Marxism towards a deeper understanding of social strife.

Àn important collection of ideas which should be read by anyone at all concerned about the pervasiveness of racist ideologies in today's societies.'--Chartist.
