Description

The Racial Contract by Charles W. Mills is a radical re-examination of Western social contract theory. This sweeping analysis explores how European expansionism and racism have shaped a system of global domination, influencing the way we think about morality and identity. Mills argues that our society remains a continuing white supremacist state, with far-reaching implications for non-whites. This 25th anniversary edition features a foreword by Tommy Shelbie and a new preface by the author, offering fresh insights into the ongoing relevance of this influential work. The Racial Contract is a thought-provoking exploration of the intersection between racism and political philosophy, making it an essential read for anyone interested in understanding the complex dynamics of power and oppression.
