This work examines the notion of race, a prominent idea in Western thinking. But, the book argues, race is not a universal idea, not even in the West, it is an idea with a definite pedigree, and this text traces that confused pedigree from Hesiod to the Holocaust and beyond.

Autorentext
Ivan Hannaford was assistant director for academic affairs at Kingston University in England until his retirement in 1991. He has been a visiting fellow of Wolfson College, Cambridge, and a Guest Scholar of the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington, D.C.

Klappentext
In 'Race: The History of an Idea in the West', Ivan Hannaford guides readers through a dangerous engagement with an idea that so permeates Western thinking that we expect to find it, active or dormant, as an organizing principle in all societies.
