Articulations of Gender, Race, Ethnicity and Class
Settler societies are those in which European migrants have become politically dominant over indigenous peoples and a heterogeneous social structure has developed. They offer a unique prism for understanding the complex relations of gender, race, ethnicity and class in contemporary societies. Bringing together a distinguished cast of contributors, this book looks at the relation between indigenous and settler/immigrant populations. The text highlights the experiences of ten diverse societies (the United States, Canada, New Zealand, Australia, Mexico, Peru, South Africa, Zimbabwe, Algeria and Israel) and examines how the internal dynamics of settler societies reflect their positions within a global economy. The ways in which the complex forces of gender, race, ethnicity and class combine are explored in relation to key issues including state-building processes and ideologies, economic life and oppositional social movements. The contributors understand settler societies in terms of the interdependent histories of indigenous and migrant peoples. Taking into account the gendered character of these histories, they go on to analyse the shifting social and political position of women within such societies. In its critical examination of settler societies and its exploration of the conflicts that characterise them, unsettling Settler Societies will be an invaluable text for students of race and ethnic relations, women's and gender studies and social and political theory.
