This book provides a critical introduction to the topic. Whiteness has traditionally been seen as "ethnically transparent" - the marker against which other ethnicities are measured. This analysis is clearly incorrect, but only recently have many race and ethnicity scholars moved away from focusing on ethnic minorities and instead oriented their studies around the construction of white identities. Simon Clarke and Steve Garner's book is designed to guide students as they explore how white identities are forged using both sociological and psycho-social ideas.Including an excellent survey of the existing literature and original research from the UK, this book will be an invaluable guide for sociology students taking modules in race and ethnicity. 606 $aWhite people$xRace identity 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aWhite people$xRace identity. 676 $a305.809 700 $aClarke$b Simon$f1962-$0971112 701 $aGarner$b Steve$f1963-$0971113 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910456301803321 996 $aWhite identities$92207426 997 $aUNINA
