"Winner of the Ralph J. Bunche Award, American Political Science Association"
"One of Times Higher Education's Best Books of 2018"
"Lucidly written." * Publishers Weekly *
"[Hanchard] widens the lens both chronologically (beginning with ancient Greece) and thematically (seeing racism as a subset of discrimination). Hanchard promises to get to the bottom of a paradox of modern democracies, in which the ideology of equality goes head to head with politically dominant groups that have always tried to exclude others."---David S. Katz, Times Higher Education
"A detailed discussion of the concept of race and its evolution, and how it underpins the debate on citizenship and democracy."---Dr Gennaro Errichiello, Rest Journal
