In the past few years, a new generation of progressive intellectuals has dramatically transformed how law, race, and racial power are understood and discussed in America. Questioning the old assumptions of both liberals and conservatives with respect to the goals and the means of traditional civil rights reform, critical race theorists have presented new paradigms for understanding racial injustice and new ways of seeing the links between race, gender, sexual orientation, and class. This reader, edited by the principal founders and leading theoreticians of the critical race theory movement, gathers together for the first time the movement’s most important essays.

Dean and Massumi are archaeologists of the hegemonic moment. From blinding light to disappearance and theirruption of the State, they return to too-late-capitalist America by way of ancient China, following theself-dispersing body of the Despot.
