Drawing the Global Colour Line

White Men's Countries and the International Challenge of Racial Equality

Beschreibung

This book studies the transnational circulation of people and ideas, racial knowledge and technologies that under-pinned the construction of white men's countries from South Africa, to North America and Australasia. It reveals the centrality of struggles around mobility and sovereignty to modern formulations of race and human rights.
