Description

Explore a new interpretation of racial identity in Desiring Whiteness by Seshadri-Crooks. Published by Routledge as part of the Opening Out: Feminism for Today series, this book examines the gap between race as a social construction and its persistent role in everyday visual categorization. By applying Lacanian theories regarding the subject and sexual difference, the text investigates how racial identity becomes a fundamental part of human thought. The author looks at how subjects become raced and whether reading bodies as racially marked is a product of common sense. Through detailed readings of film and literary texts, this work provides a deep look at how the discourse of race functions similarly to the discourse of sexual difference. This book is a significant resource for those studying social sciences, identity, and psychoanalytic theory.

Key Features

Provides a new interpretation of how race functions in everyday life and visual perception.

Uses Lacan's theories of the subject and sexual difference to examine racial identity.

Analyzes how the discourse of race parallels the discourse of sexual difference.

Includes close readings of various literary and film texts to support the analysis.

Part of the Opening Out: Feminism for Today series from Routledge.
