“With its first issue, Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts establishes itself at the rich intersection of race and ethnicity studies. In our new world, where boundaries seem to grow more fluid by the day, this journal will be at the forefront of our crucial, global conversation about who we are and where we are going. Race/Ethnicity is scholarship at its best.”
-- Henry Louis Gates, Jr. W.E.B. Du Bois Professor of the Humanities, Harvard University

"Race/Ethnicity provides an innovative approach to exploring the complexities of race and ethnicity, crucial to challenging the rules of monoracial and single-discipline scholarship and promoting a racially just vision for the world."
-- Rinku Sen, Executive Director, Applied Research Center

Race/Ethnicity: Multidisciplinary Global Contexts is a peer-reviewed journal jointly produced through The Kirwan Institute for the Study of Race and Ethnicity and the Office of Minority Affairs at The Ohio State University. Using a “classic” text as a point of departure in each issue, the journal offers investigations of sustained and emergent themes in the global field of race and ethnic studies. By promoting research that works across the traditional boundaries of discipline, geography, and the theory/practice divide, Race/Ethnicity makes a vital contribution to the expanding discourse on race and ethnicity in the United States and throughout the world.

Multidisciplinary
Race/Ethnicity brings together diverse analyses (economic, historical, cultural, geographical, legal, discursive, scientific, and political) to offer more robust and complex treatments of key themes within studies of race and ethnicity.

Global
Race/Ethnicity seeks to deepen and expand conversations on race and ethnicity by inviting research and insights from across the globe. Moreover, the journal encourages comparative methodologies that analyze similarities and differences across cultures and that account for the interconnectedness of the contemporary world.

Multi-Contextual
Race/Ethnicity accounts for the significance of multiple ways of knowing by integrating various perspectives produced within practitioner, activist, academic, creative, and other contexts.
