Synopsis

This book examines the ways in which words such as "race" and "racism" are employed. Professor Banton adopts a comparative approach in discussing race relations and provides an introduction to the new and rather more technical vocabulary which permits a firmer grasp of the complexities than the words and images of popular discourse allow. "Racial Consciousness" has been specifically written for students taking introductory courses in social sciences. However, its approach to this hotly disputed subject should also make it a valuable introduction for all those, such as teachers, who have a professional interest in race relations.
