David Theo Goldberg, The Threat of Race: Reflections on Racial Neoliberalism Wiley-Blackwell, 2009

If we are not in a postracial world where racism has ceased to exist, then what role does race in fact play in how people are viewed, branded, treated, and controlled? Race, according to David Theo Goldberg, has become to some extent invisibilized, and to a great extent privatized. His new book examines how the neoliberal state approaches and uses race, even as it claims to ignore it.
