  • Introducing Intersectionality

    Introducing Intersectionality

    Introducing Intersectionality addresses how to understand social inequality by considering race, class, and gender in tandem, along with sexuality, citizenship, and ableism. The book demonstrates how inclusive analysis of domination moves toward solutions for diverse populations.

    “Romero provides an accessible and comprehensive introduction to the concept of intersectionality and its application to understanding the complex ways in which social identities and systems of power interact to shape individual experiences and social structures.”

  • The Maid’s Daughter: Living Inside and Outside the American Dream

    The Maid’s Daughter: Living Inside and Outside the American Dream

    The Maid’s Daughter offers a complex rendering of the upbringing of Olivia — the daughter of a live-in maid to a wealthy family. This ethnographic study traces how Olivia navigated between two worlds: the affluent household where her mother worked and the working-class community where she grew up.

    “Romero gives us an intimate portrait of how class, race, and gender intersect in the daily lives of domestic workers and their families, illuminating the hidden costs of care work and the resilience of those who perform it.”

    The Hidden Curriculum in Higher Education – Persian

    The Persian (Farsi) translation of The Hidden Curriculum in Higher Education brings Eric Margolis’s groundbreaking analysis to Farsi-speaking scholars and students. The book examines how colleges and universities produce race, class, and gender hierarchies and reproduce conservative ideology through their hidden curricula — the unwritten, unofficial, and often unintended lessons, values, and perspectives that students absorb in the course of their education.

    “The Hidden Curriculum in Higher Education is a daring look at the way colleges and universities reproduce social inequality. These original and provocative essays shed light on all that remains hidden in higher education — from the architecture of campus buildings to the rituals of dissertation advising, from the politics of textbook selection to the racial and gender dynamics of the classroom.”
