Seventeen essays written by a team of international scholars aim collectively at critically reflecting on the historical genesis of modern racism from its constitution in early Modernity, and its systematisation in the Enlightenment period, to various forms of its popularisation in Modern Society. This structure derives from the work of Wulf D. Hund to whom this edited collection is dedicated. Inspired by his analysis of racialised discourses in European thought and global history, the book will show modern racism from different perspectives to be a mode of a negative societalisation.
