Rezensionen

David Roediger's work is always as learned as it is profoundly engaged with the pursuit of social justice. From his signature study of The Wages of Whiteness, to the analysis of links between settler colonial dispossession, gendered social reproduction, plantation management, and immigrant labor in the making of modern racial capitalism - Roediger's bold commitments to demonstrating the historical and ongoing imbrications of race and class in the United States are timely, and more necessary than ever.
