Vernon Press invites original monograph or edited volume proposals for inclusion in our newly created Philosophy of Race series.
The Philosophy of Race series is set to feature a broad range of publications that center upon the concept of race. The concept of race has had and continues to have important philosophical, sociological, existential, historical, psychological, legal, and political implications, and this series aims to put a spotlight on some of the rigorous research that is being done in this arena. This series will engage professionals, students, and the educated public who are interested in race, racialization, and the various ways in which these concepts show themselves.
This series invites proposals of monographs and edited volumes that engage with the concept of race, broadly construed. The Philosophy of Race series underscores the centrality of race in contemporary interdisciplinary scholarship, particularly within the humanities and social sciences.
