Omschrijving

The concept of a shared "white" racial identity is a relatively recent invention, yet the history of the European peoples who came to be grouped under that label spans thousands of years of migration, conquest, cultural exchange, and conflict. The History of White People examines the origins and development of European ethnic and racial identities from the ancient tribes of the continent through the age of empires, the construction of racial categories, and the social and political consequences of those categories in the modern world.

The book approaches its subject historically and analytically, tracing the migrations of Indo-European peoples, the rise and fall of ancient civilizations, the formation of medieval European identities, and the development of racial thinking in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. It also examines how ideas about race shaped colonialism, slavery, and the politics of the twentieth century. The tone is factual and scholarly, making it suitable for readers with an interest in cultural history, anthropology, and the history of ideas.

Contents:

This title is suited to history, cultural studies, and social sciences sections. It is appropriate for academic libraries, general bookshops, and public libraries serving readers interested in the history of race, identity, and European civilization.
