Description
Elite White Men Ruling: A Critical Analysis of Dominance in U.S. and Global Society This book examines the powerful role of elite white men in shaping society, despite their often-overlooked status. By analyzing their influence on systems of oppression, including racism, classism, and sexism, the authors shed light on a crucial aspect of our global social landscape. The principal focus of this book is on understanding the neglected research and policy questions surrounding the elite-white-male role in the system of racial oppression in the United States and globally. The authors also explore their position at the top of other societal hierarchies, such as class and gender systems. By examining the "who, what, when, where, and how" of elite white male dominance, this book provides a critical analysis of their impact on society and highlights the need for greater attention to these issues in research and policy.
