Overview
In these eight essays, Lyman (sociology, Florida Atlantic University at Boca Raton) argues that postmodern epistemologies provide a disservice to those who struggle for freedom. Bringing scrutiny to the "American Dilemma," "the Jewish Question," the role of cinema, and the place of community, he examines American discourses on race. Particular attention is given to the treatment of Chinese workers in labor history, the construction of ethno-identities, and the ideological function of the movies.Annotation © Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
