Description and Table of Contents
Description
Many of the articles included in this volume focus on the issues of race and ethnicity with a specifically American examination of the concept of race. Others discuss Marx, Freud and the Jewish question in a similar context. Thesection on sex differences gives appropriate weight to French thinkers; and Part Four, `From Rank to Class', includes assessments of the influence of Locke and Hegel. The editor's introduction and the essays of Part One: Human Nature, supply a more generalised backdrop against which these issues may be considered.
Contributors include: DAVID E. CARTWRIGHT, DONALD J. D`ELIA, SHLOMO AVINERI, FRANCIS E. KEARNS, FLAVIA ALAYA, DAVID M. POST and C.B. MACPHERSON.
