Consuming Race

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

This book explores how the meanings of race are made and remade in everyday acts of consumption: it is through the consumption of products, TV, new media, books, food, design, toys and games, plants, animals and landscapes that we make sense of ourselves and others.
