Today{\textquoteright}s society is confronted with problems of racial division that are, in some ways, far more complex and ambiguous than those of straightforward segregation, bigotry, and the civil rights struggles of the 1950s and 60s. From exploring intersectionality by looking at the social forces turning hip hop away from{\textemdash}or toward{\textemdash}its political roots and providing thoughtful consideration of how students can participate in the fight for equality and freedom, to incorporating a critical analysis of whiteness without leaving white students feeling guilty or persecuted, Desmond and Emirbayer provide an effective language for discussing and addressing the multifaceted problems of race and racism in today{\textquoteright}s society. \&nbsp;

A CHAPTER ORGANIZATION THAT EXAMINES RACE AND RACISM IN SOCIAL LIFE

Chapters are structured around the many and varied social spheres in which racial dynamics operate, from education and politics to work and intimate relationships. Topics explored include racial polarization in American politics; the ways in which poor minority families are challenged by stagnant incomes, lack of housing assistance, and rising housing costs; and various explanations for why the majority of poor Americans are white even though African Americans, Hispanics, and American Indians are more likely than whites to be poor.\&nbsp;

	title = {The Racial Order},
	year = {2015},
	note = {Publisher{\textquoteright}s Abstract: Proceeding from the bold and provocative claim that there never has been a comprehensive and systematic theory of race, Mustafa Emirbayer and Matthew Desmond set out to reformulate how we think about this most difficult of topics in American life. In The Racial Order, they draw on Bourdieu, Durkheim, and Dewey to present a new theoretical framework for race scholarship. Animated by a deep and reflexive intelligence, the book engages the large and important issues of social theory today and, along the way, offers piercing insights into how race actually works in America. Emirbayer and Desmond set out to examine how the racial order is structured, how it is reproduced and sometimes transformed, and how it penetrates into the innermost reaches of our racialized selves. They also consider how{\textemdash}and toward what end{\textemdash}the racial order might be reconstructed.
In the end, this project is not merely about race; it is a theoretical reconsideration of the fundamental problems of order, agency, power, and social justice. The Racial Order is a challenging work of social theory, institutional and cultural analysis, and normative inquiry.
{\textquotedblleft}The Racial Order is a landmark in the theoretical analysis of race relations. Integrating and building on ideas from some of the most important thinkers on intergroup relations, Emirbayer and Desmond provide a comprehensive framework that takes race scholarship to a higher level of illumination and will inform and provide direction for empirical scholarship. Look no further for a publication that addresses the complexities of racial life with explanatory power.{\textquotedblright}-William Julius Wilson, Harvard University
{\textquotedblleft}In this ambitious theoretical program, Emirbayer and Desmond intertwine structure and culture, Bourdieu and Pragmatism, Durkheim and psychoanalysis. Their empirical scholarship is wide-ranging. The Racial Order inspires moral clarity about the pernicious racialism that continues to divide the American civil sphere.{\textquotedblright}-Jeffrey C. Alexander, Yale University
{\textquotedblleft}Race in its multiplicity and ineluctability has pervaded the modern world while paradoxically{\textemdash}or perhaps unsurprisingly?{\textemdash}evading comprehensive theorization. If the truth lies in the whole, as Hegel thought, that multi-dimensional racial whole has either been perverted in past racist biologism, flattened in class-reductivist Marxism or subjectivist psychologism, denied altogether in contemporary liberal color-blindness, or abandoned as a theoretical goal in pursuit of localized empiricism. Now, in this impressive interdisciplinary synthesis, Emirbayer and Desmond offer a bold and ambitious new framework for thinking of race that does justice to structure as well as agency, relationality and social psychology, recalcitrant white habitus and the transformational reconstructive ideal of racial democracy. Agree or disagree, every serious scholar of race will need to read this book.{\textquotedblright}-Charles W. Mills, Northwestern University
{\textquotedblleft}The Racial Order is a daring, ambitious, and important book. With its demanding but much needed conceptual equipment, it is also challenging and rewarding. By broadening significantly the range of authors whose work informs contemporary views on racial dynamics, Emirbayer and Desmond take a gamble: they add important layers of complexity to what often feels like a well-trodden sociological terrain. While The Racial Order will certainly generate debates, it should entice us to plough new paths for inquiry in what is perhaps the most highly politicized field of knowledge production in the social sciences. May social scientists committed to the pursuit of racial democracy and social justice raise to the occasion! It is well worth the effort.{\textquotedblright}-Mich{\`e}le Lamont, director, Weatherhead Center for International Affairs, Harvard University},

Publisher{\textquoteright}s Abstract.  In this rugged account of a rugged profession, Matthew Desmond explores the heart and soul of the wildland firefighter. Having joined a firecrew in Northern Arizona as a young man, Desmond relates his experiences with intimate knowledge and native ease, adroitly balancing emotion with analysis and action with insight. On the Fireline shows that these firefighters aren{\textquoteright}t the adrenaline junkies or romantic heroes as they{\textquoteright}re so often portrayed.  An immersion into a dangerous world, On the Fireline is also a sophisticated analysis of a high-risk profession{\textemdash}and a captivating read.
