Racism - Science topic

We propose to guest-edit a special issue of Quaderni di sociologia devoted to exploring a topic that is not alien to the spirit our zeitgeist and that we believe we can grasp with the idea of new faces of obscurantism. Indeed, our future, disdained because it is unpredictable, unreliable, and straight-up unmanageable, is now pilloried and classifie...

Near hysteria has erupted in the media, state and federal legislatures, community boards, and churches around Critical Race Theory (CRT). Despite the term’s history, development, and clearly defined meaning, it has become a catch-all for white America’s fears, deflections, and equivocations on race, society, and the law. Christians are no exception...

This research challenges the unfounded theory of systemic racism that is treated as truth by the American media in 2023.

Errol Henderson writes “the banality of white supremacy, more than the democratic peace thesis, is probably ‘the closest thing to an empirical law in world politics.’” Such a view is likely shared by IR scholars that study race as kindred systems of hierarchy. By comparison, the collective field is now “noticing” its long silence on the subject. Re...
