The Routledge International Handbook of Colorism (Routledge International Handbooks)

Description:

About this item:

This timely and unique edited book explores the concept of colorism, which is discrimination based on the color of a person’s skin. It takes a global approach that draws on authentic voices from varied contexts and is dedicated to exploring and enriching the diverse intellectual discourse on colorism.

The book explores colorism across the globe and studies how it has been woven into the cultural fabric of communities of color. With 22 chapters organised geographically into parts representing six continents, it looks at various facets of colorism, offering international insights beyond a Western perspective. The handbook examines policy-making in the sphere of colorism internationally and across countries, and provides thoughtful insights on colorism discrimination in different contexts. Chapters are written by leading experts from different disciplinary backgrounds who present cutting-edge research on the topic of colorism in different country contexts, contributing to a global dialogue on colorism.

The Routledge International Handbook of Colorism comprehensively highlights colorism and skin color bias which blurs the national and international boundaries. It will be fascinating reading for students and academics in psychology, social work, education, criminal justice and other social sciences. It will also be of interest to those working in areas relating to marginalization, human rights, diversity and inclusion.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"The Routledge International Handbook of Colorism is the most significant pioneering work on colorism to be published. Comprised of voices, stories, historical perspectives, research, and lived experiences of diverse international writers representing the six continents, the handbook thoroughly examines colorism and all its complexity."

Donnamaria Culbreth, Colorism Project, Inc.

"The Routledge International Handbook on Colorism is a very thoughtful and timely piece of scholarship that is theoretically and methodically robust. Ronald E. Hall, the Father of Colorism has produced a landmark academic work organising the field and pulling together for the first time all the top colorism scholars both nationally and internationally. Hall should be applauded for producing and taking on such difficult and complex subject matter so successfully. I highly recommend the Routledge International Handbook of Colorism, it should be required reading for those who genuinely want to understand one of the society’s most challenging and complex issues of our times- Colorism and the politics of color."

Dr Richard Majors, Honorary Professor, Senior Consulting Counselling Psychologist and creator of Black Male Studies.
