Since at least the early 1990s, philosophical race theory has emerged as a dynamic and fertile area of serious scholarly inquiry, and this new four-volume Major Work from Routledge meets the need for a comprehensive collection to facilitate ready access to the most influential and important foundational and cutting-edge scholarship. Volume I ('Philosophy and the History of Race, Race in the History of Philosophy') brings together the key texts to have shaped the most widely recognized forms of 'race thinking'. The second and third volumes in the collection, meanwhile, explore the questions that race raises in philosophy's traditional subfields. Volume II ('Racial Being and Knowing') gathers the best and most influential work to unravel the implications of racial practices for metaphysics, ontology, and epistemology. And Volume III ('Race-ing Beauty, Goodness, and Right') collects the key scholarship to deal with the consequences of racial practices for aesthetics, ethics, and politics. The final volume in the collection ('Intersections and Positions') assembles the most important work to grapple with the methodological and geographical complications that accompany a commitment to racialism. (Race is an inherently contextual phenomenon and some of the material gathered in this volume--in particular, that exploring racialization in Japan, Brazil, and Norway--provides a refreshing counterweight to the philosophical zeal for abstraction.) The Philosophy of Race is edited by Paul C. Taylor, a leading scholar in the field. The collection is fully indexed and has a comprehensive introduction, newly written by the editor, which places the material in its intellectual and historic context. It is an essential work of reference and is destined to be valued by scholars and students as a vital one-stop research resource.
