Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-032-53164-9 (ISBN)
The book explores colorism across the globe and studies how it has been woven into the cultural fabric of communities of color. With 22 chapters organised geographically into parts representing six continents, it looks at various facets of colorism, offering international insights beyond a Western perspective. The handbook examines policy-making in the sphere of colorism internationally and across countries, and provides thoughtful insights on colorism discrimination in different contexts. Chapters are written by leading experts from different disciplinary backgrounds who present cutting-edge research on the topic of colorism in different country contexts, contributing to a global dialogue on colorism.
The Routledge International Handbook of Colorism comprehensively highlights colorism and skin color bias which blurs the national and international boundaries. It will be fascinating reading for students and academics in psychology, social work, education, criminal justice and other social sciences. It will also be of interest to those working in areas relating to marginalization, human rights, diversity and inclusion.
