Social Justice

Maison d'édition: Publifye

Synopsis

"Social Justice" offers a comprehensive exploration of the ongoing struggle for equality in our modern world, focusing on systemic inequality, intersectionality, and digital-age activism. This timely analysis delves into the complex issues surrounding social justice, tracing the evolution of movements from the Civil Rights era to present-day advocacy.

The book argues that achieving true equality requires addressing deep-rooted systemic inequalities rather than treating surface-level symptoms. Through a combination of academic research, government reports, and first-hand accounts, the book examines how various forms of discrimination intersect and reinforce each other. It highlights the importance of understanding these intersections to grasp the challenges faced by marginalized communities fully.

The book's structure progresses from introducing key concepts to exploring specific case studies, examining intersectionality, and finally discussing modern activism techniques. What sets this work apart is its emphasis on intersectionality and its accessible yet rigorous approach to complex social issues.

By interweaving personal stories with data and theory, "Social Justice" provides readers with a nuanced understanding of contemporary debates while offering practical strategies for recognizing biases and creating more inclusive policies. This makes it an invaluable resource for students, activists, policymakers, and anyone seeking to engage meaningfully in the ongoing struggle for a more equitable society.

Blowback - The Costs and...

Chalmers Johnson

The term “blowback,” invented by the CIA, refers to the unintended consequences of American actions abroad. In this incisive and controversial book, Chalmers Johnson lays out in vivid detail the dangers faced by our overextended empire, which insists on projecting its military power to every corner of the earth and using American capital and markets to force global economic integration on its own terms. 
From a case of rape by US servicemen in Okinawa to our role in Asia’s financial crisis, from our early support for Saddam Hussein to our conduct in the Balkans, Johnson reveals the ways in which our misguided policies are planting the seeds of future disaster. 
In a new edition that addresses recent international events from 9/11 to the war in Iraq, this now classic book remains as prescient and powerful as ever.

Liberal White Supremacy - How...

Angie Beeman

In Liberal White Supremacy, Angie Beeman argues that white supremacy is maintained not only by right-wing conservatives or stereotypically uneducated working-class racial bigots but also by progressives who operate from a liberal ideology of color-blindness, racism-evasiveness, and class elitism. This distinction provides insight on divisions among progressives at the local level, in community organizations, and at the national level, in the Democratic Party. By distinguishing between liberal and radical approaches to racism, class oppression, capitalism, and social movement tactics, Beeman shows how progressives continue to be limited by liberal ideology and perpetuate rather than dismantle white supremacy, all while claiming to be antiracist. 
 
 
 
She conceptualizes this self-serving process as "liberal white supremacy," the tendency for liberal European Americans to constantly place themselves in the superior moral position in a way that reinforces inequality. Beeman advances what she calls action-oriented and racism-centered intersectional approaches as alternatives to progressive organizational strategies that either downplay racism in favor of a class-centered approach or take a talk-centered approach to racism without developing explicit actions to challenge it.
