摘要

法国是一个白人占绝对多数的国家。然而，大多数法国人不愿意认同自己是白人，法国社会科学也倾向于回避白人作为研究对象。受批判性种族理论和批判性白人研究的启发，这期跨学科的特刊为法国的白人身份提供了新的视角。它这样做不是通过突出白人来重新定位白人，而是揭露和批评白人的统治地位。本导论考察了《白》的全球和地方维度，然后确定了其法国版本的三个显著维度:种族歧视的普遍主义共和国的意识形态;法国殖民主义、奴隶制和海外领土统治的过去和现在的做法;以及穆斯林或北非背景的人的种族化

This introduction examines the global and local dimensions of Whiteness, before identifying three salient dimensions of its French version: the ideology of the race-blind universalist republic; the past and present practice of French colonialism, slavery, and rule across overseas territories; and the racialization of people of Muslim or North African backgrounds as

期刊介绍： French Politics, Culture & Society explores modern and contemporary France from the perspectives of the social sciences, history, and cultural analysis. It also examines France''s relationship to the larger world, especially Europe, the United States, and the former French Empire. The editors also welcome pieces on recent debates and events, as well as articles that explore the connections between French society and cultural expression of all sorts (such as art, film, literature, and popular culture). Issues devoted to a single theme appear from time to time. With refereed research articles, timely essays, and reviews of books in many disciplines, French Politics, Culture & Society provides a forum for learned opinion and the latest scholarship on France.
