Chandran Nair's Dismantling Global White Privilege: Equity for a Post-Western World explores the ways in which white privilege damages and distorts societies around the world. As Nair shows, a belief in the innate superiority of White people and Western culture, once the driving force behind imperialism, is now woven into the very fabric of globalization. Nair examines its impact on geopolitics, the reframing of world history, international business practices, entertainment, the news media, sports, and fashion.
