The intersection of race and society is a dynamic and evolving area of study, influencing the way people interact, how policies are formed, and how fundamental systems operate. As inequality and discrimination remain pervasive in societies across the globe, the exploration of racial dynamics is key to addressing the challenges and opportunities presented by our increasingly interconnected world.
From the social psychology of race and group behavior to the impacts of structural racism, researchers worldwide are sharing their findings in support of building a more equitable, inclusive, and informed society.
In this interdisciplinary collection, our experts discuss key topics around race and identity in the 21st century:
- The Social Psychology of Race and Identity
- Race, Politics, and Policy
- Structural Racism and Discrimination
- Race, Technology, and Modern Society
