Studies in Asia-Pacific "Mixed Race"
This series will focus on the construction of mixed race or creole identities within the Asia-Pacific region. There has been considerable discussion of mixed race within European and American contexts (mestiza, hapa, metis, beur, etc) but comparatively little has been said about the many biracial and 'multiracial populations within the Asia-Pacific. Economic globalisation demands that people cross national borders with increasing frequency. This means that new mixed race identities are a prominent feature of the contemporary world. The series examines this contemporary importance from a variety of disciplinary perspectives as well as considering the ways that mixed race categories were in the past constructed out of the colonial encounter. The series accepts monographs, collected papers and conference proceedings. This series will focus on the construction of mixed race or creole identities within the Asia-Pacific region.

Studies in Communication, Culture, Race, and Religion
Studies in Communication, Culture, Race, and Religion explores and examines the intersection of communication, culture, race, and religion. Books in this series demonstrate how communication and cultural frameworks, helps shape our understanding of race and religion—and in turn, how an understanding of race and religion shapes our understanding of how we communicate and interpret culture. This series will provide space for emerging, junior, or senior scholars engaged in research that studies the intersection of communication, culture, race, and religion to publish exciting and groundbreaking work. Grounded in communication methodology and theory, books in this series will also contribute to our understanding of how communication helps shapes culture and how culture shapes how we communicate. Moreover, this series understands that to further our knowledge of how communication helps to shape culture, an understand of race and religion becomes important. In this series, scholars are open to examine phenomena from either a historical or contemporary perspective and demonstrate how media and culture are intertwined with race and religion. Since these subjects are interdisciplinary, this peer-reviewed book series will invite proposals for and submissions of monographs and edited volumes from scholars across all academic disciplines using a plethora of communication methodologies and theories.

Global Intersectionality of Education, Sports, Race, and Gender
ISSN: 2578-7713
This series responds to the interesting dialogue and unique social phenomena in the global context produced by the intersections of race, sport, gender, and culture. Global Intersectionality explores these intersections and expands the literature on how each inform our thinking around certain dominant ideologies. This series examines how sporting practices in the U.S. are becoming the global norm in defining what is sport, thus our understanding of race, gender, and culture. The purpose is to inform sport enthusiasts, college students— undergraduate or graduate— educators, researchers, policy makers, and other stakeholders—who are social justice oriented— about the role sport has in contributing to informing cultural ideology, reproducing and reinforcing race and gender ideologies. It also seeks to foster an understanding of how this social phenomenon, that is often situated as merely entertainment or a recreational activity for leisure, has shifted into a cultural practice that can engender global socio-political relations. The topics will include critical moments in sport, as well as broader social movements in sporting context. In addition, this series will dis- cuss topics ranging from youth to professional sporting experiences with attention given to the socialization and educational processes inherent in these experiences as it relates to race, gender, and culture—one title might explore the global sporting practices of Black women, another book topic will examine the sporting practices and the academic and athletic excellence achieved at Historically Black Colleges and Universities. Or, for example, another topic might be examining the athletic migration patterns of African athletes to Europe and the U.S. The uniqueness of the titles in this series is that they will employ a variety of methodologies, including, but not limited to, qualitative, quantitative, mixed methods methodological approaches, non- empirical and socio-historical approaches that incorporate primary and secondary data sources.

Race and Resistance Across Borders in the Long Twentieth Century
ISSN: 2297-2552
This series focuses on the history and culture of activists, artists and intellectuals who have worked within and against racially oppressive hierarchies in the twentieth century and beyond, and who have then sought to define and to achieve full equality once those formal hierarchies have been overturned. It explores the ways in which such individuals - writers, scholars, campaigners and organizers, ministers, and artists and performers of all kinds - locate their resistance within a global context and forge connections with each other across national, linguistic, regional and imperial borders. Disseminating the latest interdisciplinary scholarship on the history, literature and culture of anti-racist movements in Africa, the Caribbean, the United States, Europe, Asia and Latin America, the series foregrounds, through a cross-disciplinary approach, the transnational and intercultural nature of these resistance movements. The series embraces a range of themes, including but not limited to antislavery, intellectual and literary networks, emigration and immigration, anti-imperialism, church-based and religious movements, civil rights, citizenship and identity, Black Power, resistance strategies, women's movements, cultural transfer, white supremacy and anti-immigration, hip hop and global justice movements. The series is affiliated with the Race and Resistance Research Programme at The Oxford Research Centre in the Humanities (TORCH), University of Oxford. Proposals are invited for sole- and joint-authored monographs as well as edited collections. We welcome projects in a wide range of fields, including but not restricted to history, political science, anthropology, literature, cultural studies and media studies.
