- catalog abstract ""Once studies of race and ethnicity were dominated by discussion of non-western and exotic identities. However, recent years have seen the development of a debate on the meaning and nature of a supposedly very 'normal' or 'ordinary' identity - whiteness." "White Identities provides an historical and international intervention in this debate, drawing together new insights and original research into an accessible but challenging introduction to the topic. The author argues that 'White Studies', as it is presently conceived, is an American project, reflecting American interpretations of race and history. However, the book shows that the impact of white identities is global in scope and significance. Thus, only a thorough historical and international perspective on whiteness can provide a proper introduction to the subject, an introduction that has relevance to students worldwide."--Jacket.".
