Introducing and engaging with womanist frameworks to center the lives of Global South women who live under colonial oppressions, this collection centers the consciousness, spirituality, philosophy, wisdom, community institutions, and ecologies found in a variety of Global South regions and diasporas.Diasporic Womanist Sociology offers a decolonial approach to critical research, interpretive frameworks, pedagogy, mentorship, activism, and building academia-community collectives of solidarity, presenting womanism as a practical framework for personal and professional development for sociologists and scholars in other fields. With contributors from South Asia, Latin America, Africa, the Caribbean, Europe, Asia, and North America, this book draws on tenets of womanism to shape their practice and engagement with students, scholars, and activists, especially those of the Global South and its diasporas.This volume makes critical contributions to fields ranging from Gender and Women Studies, Race and Ethnic Studies, and Decolonial and Postcolonial Theory, and can be assigned to undergraduate and graduate students to explore the foundational work of Black Feminism and gender non-conforming people of color and an inclusive framework of identity, spirituality, and pursuit of social justice.

タジキスタンにおける国際移民管理
Bahovadinova, Malika, Making Migrants: International Migration Management in Tajikistan. 277 pp. 2026:4 (U. Pennsylvania Pr., US) <765-952>

How officials in bureaucratic institutions in Tajikistan, though well-meaning, create a postcolonial, problematic "migrant"Making Migrants explores the postcolonial life of institutions and law in Tajikistan, finding that bureaucratic spaces render people who seek to work abroad into the subjective construct of a "migrant." Anthropologist Malika Bahovadinova argues that this category describes not an individual, but a broader process of government regulation and control. Both structural and literal violence is entrenched in the bureaucratic process, which, in our increasingly mobile world, unfolds in a hostile global context where nation-states seek to make the figure of the "migrant" an "illegal" one.Through an examination of migration officials' day-to-day work facilitating migration from Tajikistan to Russia, Bahovadinova reveals how 10 percent of Tajikistan's population has moved to Russia in search of stronger economic opportunities. She finds that officials face steep challenges in this work as they grapple with deeply unequal and asymmetrical relationships with Russia, donor states, and international experts, while coming face-to-face with postcolonial legacies from the Soviet past. By exploring relationships between history, pedagogy, and law in migration bureaucracy, Bahovadinova highlights the limited possibilities available to officials in global migration management, asks how governmental ideas and practices develop, and uncovers the challenges that transnational citizens face when they leave their countries to work without forfeiting their original citizenship.This case shows how postcolonial countries that export workers introduce and replicate colonial rationalities that understand laborers as "migrants" or "illegals" in receiving states. By attaching the term "illegal" to people from a former colony, Russia shapes representations of Tajikistan's citizens as inherently potentially criminal and dangerous "others," while benefitting from their temporary labor. Ultimately, Making Migrants uncovers how introducing and performing "migration management" in a postcolonial environment aligns with and reinforces colonial rationalities about people, labor, economic opportunity, and bureaucratic authority.

Grounded in long-term ethnography, Refugees Together and Citizens Apart examines how dispossessed Palestinians experience and seek to resist Israeli coercive differentiation through the study of two areas with intertwined histories of forced displacement: the segregated Palestinian districts of Lyd (renamed Lod), and the Jalazone refugee camp in the West Bank. This book brings together the securitized policing that Palestinians experience today in Lyd and the layers of militarism, humanitarianism, and PA rule that Palestinians are forced to negotiate in Jalazone. Melding Palestine Studies and Bourdieusian sociology of settler colonialism, the book connects coercive control, collective emotions, and political life, and argues that how coercive control is exercised, by whom, and against whom matters for how dispossessed Palestinians strive to (re)build affective and political worlds locally and globally. Refugees Together and Citizens Apart compares the emotional climate of fear, distrust, stigma, and frustration at communal frailty in Lyd's segregated Palestinian districts with the defiant defensive togetherness in Jalazone, examining how these two emotional climates are conductive to different forms of political life. The book supplements the comparative lens with a cross-border perspective attentive not only to the historical but also familial and social ties between the two localities. Crossing Israeli borders of coercive control, this book highlights the role of legal status, place, and class in structures, experiences, and refusals of coercive differentiation. Along the way, it illuminates how the violent dismemberment of the Palestinian body politic is reproduced and the collective struggle for liberation articulated at the Palestinian margins.

The demise of the 'racial reckoning' that followed George Floyd's death in 2020 occurred without definition, scrutiny or attempts to revive it. In this compelling new book, David Dante Troutt explores the 'what,' 'so what' and 'now what' of this period when much of the US sidelined the pandemic to confront racial inequality. It details how a rare focus on embedded racism shifted toward awareness, leaving deep disparities in wealth, health and policing unaddressed, and how this was overpowered by an enduring conservative backlash. Troutt unpacks how legal doctrine favored colorblindness over inequality, and examines government policies that created segregated zones of racial bargaining in health and wealth. The book also exposes deterrence-proof policing rules and explains the problems and promises of DEI. Reckoning the Racial Reckoning argues that democratic struggles over local resources are essential for creating justice and well-being for Black American communities, and ultimately for all Americans.

Latino Families in Later Life is a comprehensive look at the issues, dilemmas, and conditions faced by older Latinos and their caregivers, with salient consideration given to key changes shaping the need for assistance and the availability of support.Jacqueline L. Angel and Sunshine Rote address a nascent caregiving crisis at a time when an aging population is set to outnumber younger adults in the United States. Though many older adults in need of care currently receive support from family members, friends, and neighbors, demographic trends portend such kin-based forms of care may not be as readily available in the future. Against this backdrop, the authors examine the caregiving experience broadly, as one shaped by cultural values, economic conditions, and structural inequities. Focusing on Latinos and Latino families in particular, the book attends to key transitions such as migration, the onset of health conditions, and changes in living arrangements, revealing culturally specific forms of resilience and engagement among caregivers and care recipients-and also significant challenges. As demographic, social, and financial circumstances change and pressures mount, the authors advocate for a "new caregiver paradigm" reflecting a supportive and sustainable ecology that is culturally responsive and essential for long-term care routes in the United States.With important revelations about the dual experiences of older adults and those who care for them, Latino Families in Later Life is insightful reading for students, scholars, and advocates interested in aging, health, family support, and care work.

The anthology brings racial capitalism to bear on the archetype of welfare capitalism - the Swedish model, referred to as the 'Nordic Model'. We do this with the aim of qualifying and challenging some institutionalised understandings of welfare capitalism represented by Sweden and, to a lesser extent, Finland. Few studies have focused on continental Europe or the Nordic region. In this edited volume, the focus is on theoretically inspired and empirically grounded analyses of Sweden in the Nordic context, exploring the Swedish capitalist welfare model from a perspective that places processes of racialisation and racial regimes at centre stage. Contributors are: Anuhya Bobba, Nicolina Ewards OEberg, Mattias Gardell, Dionysia Jia Ying Kang, Ilhan Kellecioglu, Karin Krifors, Edda Manga, Irene Molina, Diana Mulinari, Paula Maria Mulinari, Anders Neergaard, Carl-Ulrik Schierup, Claudia Tazreiter, Sima Nurali Wolgast, Martin Nurali Wolgast and Aleksandra Alund.

This timely volume offers a comprehensive analysis of the detrimental impact of restrictive policies and laws inhibiting discussions on race and identity, especially on marginalized communities, and proposes a transformative model for racial reconciliation.The book seeks to redefine the narrative surrounding race in America by dismantling entrenched white supremacist ideologies and fostering genuine dialogue around historical and contemporary racial injustices. Drawing on the principles of critical race theory, the authors present a framework that encourages readers to confront uncomfortable truths about the role of systemic racism in shaping societal norms and hierarchies. By acknowledging the intergenerational harm and trauma inflicted by white supremacy, the book charts a path towards healing and restoration for communities of color. One of the book's key contributions lies in its articulation of the Third Reconstruction era, a period marked by renewed efforts towards racial justice. Against the backdrop of this transformative era, the authors offer practical strategies for operationalizing their racial justice model, empowering readers to challenge oppressive systems and promote equity within their spheres of influence.Whether in educational institutions, corporate settings, or community organizations, the principles outlined in this book provide a roadmap for fostering inclusive environments grounded in social justice values.

Handbook of Race, Equity, and Asset-Based Research in Educational Psychology offers a profound vision of contemporary educational psychology scholarship, practice, policy, teaching, and research design that is both informed by and empowering of social justice.Despite the ubiquity of educational psychology's body of knowledge, the discipline has long neglected the academic success, well-being, and other outcomes of historically and systemically marginalized learners and research partners, and the field remains complicit in imposing normative standards and social stratification on diverse populations. This expansive and rigorous volume charts a new course in educational psychology that supports equity-focused research agendas, refined theoretical syntheses, and meaningful attention to the complexities of race, culture, and class. Each chapter vividly contextualizes critical approaches to theory, methodology, philosophy, pedagogy, and other topics, including through direct integration of decolonial, socioecological, translingual, trauma-informed, and community-engaged praxis.The book's substantive and deeply considered contributions amount to a significant scholarly reckoning with the exclusionary hierarchies that pervade the field today and an exciting articulation of its future.

This new edition of Black Feminist Sociology offers revised and updated chapters on the history, contours, and prospects of the Black feminist tradition in sociology. This volume offers new writings by established and emerging scholars working in a Black feminist tradition that provide important attention to transnational Black feminist perspectives, Black feminist sociological abolition, and Black feminist sociology in connection to other women of color feminisms. As well, this new edition incorporates further pedagogical enhancements, such as an instructor's appendix that includes examples that map how to use the text in the classroom, questions to consider, and links to digital resources. The book overall centers Black feminist sociology (BFS) within the sociology canon and widens it to feature Black feminist sociologists both outside the US and the academy. Inspired by a BFS lens, the chapters are critical, personal, political and oriented toward social justice. Key themes include the origins of BFS, expositions of BFS orientations to research that extend disciplinary norms, and contradictions of the pleasures and costs of such an approach both academically and personally. Authors explore their own sociological legacy of intellectual development to raise critical questions of intellectual thought and self-reflexivity.The book highlights the dynamism of BFS so future generations of scholars can expand upon and beyond the book's key themes. This new edition will be an essential and valuable resource for students and instructors in introductory and intermediate courses in sociology, social theory, race and ethnic studies, Black studies, feminist and womanist studies, and cultural studies.

Break the silence and inaction that perpetuate racism in everyday life When racist incidents occur, they're too often met with silence - perpetrators remain unaware, targets feel powerless, bystanders freeze, and allies hesitate. Breaking the Deadly Dance of Racism provides a comprehensive framework for understanding how these four roles maintain racism and offers concrete intervention strategies. Drawing on decades of research, psychologists Derald W. Sue and Lisa B. Spanierman reveal the hidden scripts keeping racism thriving. The book examines unique barriers each role faces - from perpetrators' defensive reactions to targets' racial trauma to bystanders' diffusion of responsibility to allies' performative gestures. Readers discover how cultural scripts like color-blind ideology protect racism from challenge, and learn detailed microintervention strategies for making racism visible, disarming biased behavior, educating offenders, and mobilizing support. The book also offers: Evidence-based guidance for developing critical consciousness about how racism operates at individual, institutional, and cultural levelsConcrete strategies for overcoming the fear, uncertainty, and social costs that prevent people from taking anti-racist actionDetailed intervention tactics tailored to the specific challenges faced by perpetrators, targets, bystanders, and alliesPractical approaches for combating both everyday microaggressions and systemic macroaggressions in organizations and societyFoundational practices for racial socialization that help parents and educators raise antiracist children through microprotections Essential reading for educators, mental health practitioners, diversity consultants, and activists, Breaking the Deadly Dance of Racism transforms abstract commitments into actionable strategies. By revealing how silence makes us complicit and providing specific intervention tools, this book empowers readers to break the deadly dance.

The Routledge Handbook of Race and Equity in Applied Linguistics provides an authoritative overview of research on racial and epistemic inequities in TESOL and applied linguistics. It focuses on intersecting systems of oppression in institutional, pedagogical, curricular, and policy spaces.Across 27 chapters, contributors critically examine everyday policies and practices, such as hiring bias and discriminatory job ads, which disadvantage multilingual learners and teachers, while amplifying agentive voices seeking change. Organized into four parts and spanning the geographic and epistemic Global South and North, the Handbook is both critique and praxis: it offers practical tools for valuing students' full repertoires, challenging native-speaker norms, redesigning curricula and assessment, and linking classroom decisions to program and policy reform. It adopts diverse and groundbreaking lenses-linguistic racism, native-speakerism, commodified hiring, translanguaging, phenomenology, pedagogy of love, Ebunlingualism, decolonial hermeneutics, intersectionality, and critical ethnographies-that counter linguistic, epistemic, racial, and institutional hegemonies.This timely handbook charts a clear decolonial path for students and scholars in TESOL, Applied Linguistics, and Education, while equipping educators and policymakers with the tools to build more just and inclusive environments.

Schrijvers, Lieke L., Conversion, Gender, Race: A Comparative Study of Women Becoming Jewish, Christian, and Muslim in the Netherlands. (Gendering the Study of Religion in the Social Sciences) 208 pp. 2026:6 (Routledge, UK) <765-107>
ISBN 978-1-032-65649-6 hard ¥47,910.- (税込) GB￡ 155.00

This book explores the intersections of religion, gender, sexuality and race in the everyday lives of female converts in the Netherlands. In a unique comparative approach, it is based on ethnographic research in Jewish, Christian and Muslim communities. What does it mean to join a religious community as a woman in a largely secularized country? How does gender impact processes of religious conversion? How can we understand processes of racialization of converts who join a minority group? The book highlights how the formation of a religious self is shaped by gender and vice versa at the level of religious community, families and individual embodiments. It considers the apparent paradox in women's conversion: When secular women join religious groups associated with gender conservatism, they are often perceived as lacking agency, or using their conversion primarily for external reasons (such as marriage). Underneath this assumption is a strong idea that 'secularity' offers women their freedom, whilst 'traditional religions' would limit women's emancipation and freedom. Drawing on insights from gender studies and religious studies, the author critically reflects on concepts and theories about women's religiosity, conversion, and the role of gender and sexuality in the construction of a religion/secular binary. The study offers fresh and nuanced insight into the similarities between religious groups, which are usually examined individually. At the same time, it recognizes that the social context and difference in social position of the three groups studied have a deep impact on the process of conversion. The book includes analysis of how new Jewish and Muslim women deal with the experience of becoming a (racialized) minority in the Netherlands, as well as how the comparison with the experiences of Christian women reflect on Christian privilege.

This book offers a unique and accessible study of migrant writing in the Swedish context. Sweden used to be renowned for its welcoming migration policy. This changed abruptly with the migration crisis in 2015 when refugees arrived in big numbers. An anti-immigration atmosphere grew stronger, supported by an expanding right-wing party. Yet to some Swedes, experiences of exclusion, even racism, were nothing new. As evident in fiction and opinion pieces by writers born in Sweden to immigrant parents, or having moved there as children, such experiences are nothing new. Throughout the book anthropologist Helena Wulff explores writing about diversity as craft and career: learning to write, getting published, breaking through and building reputation, getting prizes, dealing with competition, and performing one's literature in public. Since some of this work is translated into other languages, creative translation is considered, as are future scenarios, a recurrent topic in migrant writing. Combining evocative ethnography with a scrutiny of texts, Wulff argues that these writers educate mainstream Swedes about their own society. Ultimately, the book is about the impact of literature on society. It will be of particular interest to scholars and students in anthropology, sociology, comparative literature, migration studies and beyond.

How Our Restless Ancestors Shaped the Interconnected World We Live in Today First Migrants Revisited: Ancient Migration in Global Perspective reveals how human and hominin migrations over the past five million years shaped the world we inhabit today. Peter Bellwood synthesises insights from archaeology, palaeoanthropology, genetics, and linguistics to trace humanity's earliest movements - from the first African expansions to the global spread of agriculture. The book reveals how migration redistributed the results of biological and cultural evolution, transforming societies and environments in every corner of the globe. Bringing together decades of scholarship, Bellwood challenges simplistic narratives of ancient migration as random events without cause or consequence, instead positioning it as a powerful mechanism the behind the formation and spread of new patterns in human biology and culture. Through rich interdisciplinary analysis, he shows how the permanent movements of populations created enduring patterns of genetic, linguistic, and cultural diversity that continue to define us. Covering the migrations of early hominins, Homo sapiens dispersals across continents, and the global diffusion of agriculture, the book provides a richly interdisciplinary account of humanity's shared past, drawing clear connections between environmental change, demographic expansion, and the human impulse to explore. Deepening our understanding of migration as one of the most enduring forces in human history, First Migrants Revisited: Reinterprets migration as a dynamic process of redistribution of human biology, culture, and language Highlights the enduring consequences of prehistoric migration for contemporary human societiesProvides new insights into the large-scale population movements that shaped the genetic, cultural, and linguistic diversity that still characterizes humanity todayFeatures accessible summaries of the latest findings on early Homo sapiens dispersals and the global spread of agricultureIncludes comparative discussions of different hominin species and their adaptive strategies First Migrants Revisited: Ancient Migration in Global Perspective is ideally suited for upper-level undergraduate and postgraduate courses in archaeology, anthropology, human evolution, and historical linguistics, as well as for modules in global history, evolutionary biology, and population genetics within BA, BSc, and MA degree programmes.

Narratives of Success and Resilience of Students from Refugee Backgrounds in U.S. Schools offers educators a transformative perspective on teaching students from refugee backgrounds. Through personal narratives, this book highlights the resilience, strength, and wisdom that refugee students carry with them-alongside the rich linguistic and cultural wealth they contribute to schools. Drawing from the frameworks of community cultural wealth and ethics of care, the book challenges deficit perspectives and calls for an education system that values students not for how well they assimilate, but for the global perspectives and knowledge they bring. Centering student voice throughout, this is both a scholarly contribution and a call to action for more just and inclusive educational practices. It provides current and future educators with a deep understanding of refugee students' experiences, from not only language barriers to trauma, but also strengths and experiences, ultimately offering teaching strategies for creating inclusive, supportive learning environments.

This book examines how scholars and policy makers primarily characterize refugee resettlement as a humanitarian solution or a migration pathway. While these descriptions may be accurate, they are not comprehensive. It examines how such framing influences understandings of resettlement's scope and impact, generating conceptual blind spots that limit critical inquiry.By reframing resettlement as an institution embedded in a complex network of actors, relations, and practices, the chapters in this book reveal how resettlement is not a passive process. They explore historical and contemporary questions about how resettlement influences refugee hosting countries in the Global South and its political dimensions as a "humanitarian" program offered by countries in the Global North. By including the experiences of refugees at various points along the resettlement trajectory, such as those who may never be resettled, the book's chapters demonstrate how refugees actively strategize to become resettle-able, advocate for others within their networks, or even reject resettlement altogether. Contributions centering perspectives from the Global South expand the discourse around resettlement by examining how it operates from Southern host countries. These dynamics underscore how the specter of resettlement shapes refugee experiences in enduring ways, even when the prospect of being resettled is unattainable.This book is invaluable for students, scholars, researchers and practitioners in refugee studies, migration studies, human rights, development studies, international relations, humanitarian affairs, political science, and sociology.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Ethnic & Racial Studies.

Few ideas have had a more powerful effect on the modern world than that of race, yet few ideas are less understood. Bringing together contributions from leading international scholars, this volume traces the crystallisation of this concept in western intellectual discourse in the eighteenth century, its rapid rise to prominence as a governing concept across the world from the mid-nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries, and its legacy from the Cold War and era of decolonisation to the present. Through multiple case studies, the chapters provide new angles on more familiar contexts, such as Enlightenment Europe, while introducing related themes in areas including India and New Zealand. Race in the Modern World offers a comparative understanding of the multiplicity of ways that race has been conceptualised, how these ideas changed over time, and how the world of ideas shapes the world in which we live.
