Three separate themes form the basis of this collection: the conceptualization of race as a category within the literature; the presentation of multidisciplinary theoretical and empirical work that discusses the issue of race and education; and the creation of a forum for scholars in the First and Third Worlds which would allow for dialogue on national and international levels. The volume brings together many of the most articulate and visible scholars across the humanities and social sciences. The issue of race and representation is explored in the fields of education, cultural and women's studies, literature, sociology and African-American studies. Despite differing orientations, however, the contributors all share a common concern for stressing the importance of social context, nuance and language in understanding the dynamics of race relations. McCarthy has published "Race and Curriculum" (Falmer Press, 1990); Crichlow has published "Becoming Somebody" (Falmer Press, 1992).
