Books Ceron-Anaya, Hugo. 2019. Privilege at Play: Class, Race, Gender and Golf in Mexico. New York: Oxford University Press. http://bit.ly/3476UtN_Privilege Ê Privilege at PlayÊis a book about social inequalities and privilege in todayÕs Mexico. Based on ethnographic research conducted in upscale golf clubs and in-depth interviews with upper-middle and upper-class golfers, as well as working-class employees, this book reverses the analysis of inequalities by focusing on the privileged. Using rich qualitative data, the book examines how social hierarchies are relations produced through class, racial, and gender dynamics, which manifest in a multitude of everyday practices. The book combines an intersectional approach with a space-sensitive perspective, showing how spatial dynamicsÊdeeply influence the reproduction of power.Ê Clerge, Orly. 2019. The New Noir: Race, Identity, and Diaspora in Black Suburbia. Berkeley, CA: University of California Press. In The New Noir, Orly Clerge explores the richly complex worlds of an extraordinary generation of Black middle class adults who have migrated from different corners of the African diaspora to suburbia. The Black middle class today consists of diverse groups whose ongoing cultural, political, and material ties to the American South and Global South shape their cultural interactions at work, in their suburban neighborhoods, and at their kitchen tables. Clerge compellingly analyzes the making of a new multinational Black middle class and how they create a spectrum of Black identities that help them carve out places of their own in a changing 21st-century global city. Paying particular attention to the largest Black ethnic groups in the country, Black Americans, Jamaicans and Haitians, ClergeÕs ethnography draws on over 80 interviews with residents to examine the overlooked places where New YorkÕs middle class resides--Queens and Long Island. The New Noir reveals that region and nationality shape how the Black middle class negotiates race and class in everyday life. Shefner, John and Cory Blad. 2019. Why Austerity Persists. Polity Press. In this timely book, Shefner and Blad trace the 45-year history of austerity policies and how they became the go-to policy to resolve a host of economic problems. Using a variety of cases from the Global North and South, the book answers a number of important questions: why austerity persisted as a policy aimed at resolving national crises, despite evidence that it often does not work; how the policy itself evolved over recent decades; and who and what the powerful people and institutions are that have helped impose it across the globe. This book will appeal to students, researchers, and policy-makers interested in austerity, development, political economy, and economic sociology.
