This course will explore the dialectical relationship between racism and various aspects of political economy. In particular, we will focus on the ways in which markets, economic relations, and structures of governance have shaped and been shaped by the performance and (re)production of race and racism. This course will engage with, but not be limited to, materialist theories of race and racism.
