Synopsis
This engaging new anthology brings together important selections that have informed debates and generated controversies about race and ethnicity from the nineteenth century onwards. Using an interdisciplinary approach, the collection demonstrates and analyzes a transition from Canada's early focus on 'ethnicity' to the current proliferation of sophisticated analyses of 'race' as a concept. Resistances to traditional thinking about race and ethnicity by academics and activist communities are also discussed. The text demonstrates that despite claims of race-neutrality as a preferred ideal, Canada is actually a racialized society - race remains a key variable in influencing people's identities, experiences, and outcomes., This engaging new anthology brings together important selections that have informed debates and generated controversies about race and ethnicity from the nineteenth century onwards.

Resistances to traditional thinking about race and ethnicity by academics andactivist communities are also discussed. The text demonstrates that despite claims of race-neutrality as a preferred ideal, Canada is actually a racialized society - race remains a key variable ininfluencing people's identities, experiences, and outcomes., The Politics of Race in Canada is a collection of readings for both one-semester and full-year sociology of race & ethnicity courses dealing with the history and future of race in Canada. The aim of this text is to introduce students to the important scholarship on this topic and help them to analyse and think about its history and its application to contemporary related issues., Canadians like to think that they judge people on merit, not skin colour. But are we really colour-blind? Although Canada has an international reputation for welcoming cultural and ethnic diversity, race remains a profound influence in our society, affecting everything from self-perceptions to interpersonal relationships to interactions between the individual and the state. The Politics of Race in Canada deconstructs the myth of Canada's racelessness. Its 24 selections (among them two documents from the early twentieth century and several new essays, published here for the first time) explore the principles, practices, and polemics of race in this country from a broad range of perspectives, academic and otherwise. Designed specifically for courses in the sociology of race and ethnicity, this text will also enrich the study of race in history, anthropology, women's studies, and political science courses. New as well as previously published selections by specialists from many different disciplines offer students a multitude of perspectives on a complex topic. Concluding section focuses students' attention on resistance to traditional ways of thinking about race and ethnicity. Part introductions and study questions encourage critical thinking. Recommended websites and readings suggest new directions for research.
