Color That Matters

A Comparative Approach to Mixed Race Identity and Nordic Exceptionalism

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book examines the ways in which mixed ethnic identities in Scandinavia are formed along both cultural and embodied lines, arguing that while the official discourses in the region refer to a 'post-racial' or 'color blind' era, color still matters in the lives of people of mixed ethnic descent.
