Founder of whiteness studies surveys the race/class relationship

Seen as a key figure in the critical study of whiteness, US historian David Roediger has sometimes received criticism, and praise, alleging that he left Marxism behind in order to work on questions of identity. This volume collects his recent and new work implicitly and explicitly challenging such a view. In his historical studies of the intersections of race, settler colonialism, and slavery, in his major essay (with Elizabeth Esch) on race and the management of labour, in his detailing of the origins of critical studies of whiteness within Marxism, and in his reflections on the history of solidarity, Roediger argues that racial division is not only part of the history of capitalism but also of the logic of capital.

白人研究的创始人调查种族/阶级关系

美国历史学家大卫-罗迪格（David Roediger）被视为白人批判性研究的关键人物，他有时受到批评，有时也受到赞扬，称他为了研究身份问题而抛弃了马克思主义。本卷收集了他最近的和新的工作，隐含地和明确地挑战这种观点。在他对种族、定居者殖民主义和奴隶制的交叉点的历史研究中，在他关于种族和劳工管理的主要文章（与Elizabeth Esch合作）中，在他对马克思主义内部白人批评研究的起源的详细描述中，以及在他对团结历史的思考中，Roediger认为，种族分裂不仅是资本主义历史的一部分，也是资本逻辑的一部分。
