Ethnicity, Class, and Nationalism

"In Ethnicity, Class, and Nationalism: Caribbean and Extra-Caribbean Dimensions, specialists writing on the Caribbean form of the nation-state place race and ethnicity - along with class - in its proper context: at the very foundations of the modern nation. Editor Anton L. Allahar has hand-picked scholarship that is both contemporary and expert in its consideration of Caribbean go-politics. Furthermore, essays in this volume include comparative cases from around the globe. In the interest of locating race and ethnicity as sociological and political categories that are inimical to contemporary conceptions of the nation-state, Allahar explores spaces other than the Caribbean. The result is a comparative study that is unique in its scope and also in its level of scholarly reflection. This book is essential reading for anyone interested in advancing their analysis of political, economic, social, and cultural thought in the Caribbean."--Jacket.
