This book examines the 2024 U.S. presidential election, providing a critical analysis of how race shaped one of America's most consequential political moments. In a society as racialised as the United States, presidential elections are inherently racialised affairs, and this collection addresses urgent questions arising from Trump's return to power.
The contributions to this volume explore the historical conditions that allowed a nativist, white supremacist political movement to go mainstream in the twenty-first century, examine how racism is embedded in American political institutions, and discuss how differently racialised people understand the connections between their racial positionality and their political interests. Contributors analyse, variously, how racial ideologies and constructions of racial selfhood are stratified by liberal or conservative political identification, the connections between emotions, politics, and race, and how gendered and racial projects intersect in contemporary political discourse.
This book will appeal to to academic researchers, graduate students, and policy analysts interested in political sociology, racialization, and American electoral politics. This book was originally published as a special issue of the journal Ethnic and Racial Studies.
Enid Logan is an Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Minnesota, USA. Her primary lines of research are on race and U.S. presidential elections, contemporary black identity construction, and the racialization of indigeneity.
