Description: Toward a Global Idea of Race, Paperback by Silva, Denise Ferreira Da, ISBN 0816649200, ISBN-13 9780816649204, Like New Used, Free P&P in the UK For da Silva (sociology and American studies, U. of Southern California), racial subjection grows out of the post-Enlightenment ontological creation of the subject, especially as that subject is historically rooted in the concept of the nation. The European scientific ontological construction of the subject as self-determining and having access to universal reason can only sustain itself in reference to Others existing around the globe without such qualities. She examines the particularities of this process in the nation-building projects of United States and Brazil, in which particular articulations of the national subject produce particular logics of racial subjection.
