Description
Can humanity escape segregating behavior or master the tendency to exclusion? Where does the forceA ofA prejudiceA come from? How might one conceive the philosophical foundationsA ofA an effective antiracism? Pursuing these questions, Pierre-AndrAc Taguieff puts forward a powerful thesis: that racism has evolved from an argument about races, naturalizing inequality between "biologically" defined groups on the basisA ofA fearA ofA the other, to an argument about cultures, naturalizing historical differences and justifying exclusion. Correspondingly, he shows how antiracism must adopt the strategy that fits the varietyA ofA racism it opposes. Looking at racial and racist theories one by one and then at their antiracist counterparts, Taguieff traces an intellectual genealogyA ofA differentialist and inegalitarian waysA ofA thinking. Already viewed as an essential workA ofA reference in France, The ForceA ofA PrejudiceA is an invaluable tool for identifying and understanding both racism and its antidote in our day.A
