In 2001, Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic published their
definitive Critical Race Theory, a
compact introduction to the field that explained, in straightforward language,
the origins, principal themes, leading voices, and new directions of this
important movement in legal thought.
Since then, critical race theory has gone on to influence numerous other
fields of scholarship, and the Delgado and Stefancic primer has remained an
indispensible guide for students and teachers.
Delgado and Stefancic have revised the book to include
material on key issues such as colorblind jurisprudence, Latino-Critical
scholarship, immigration, and the rollback of affirmative action. This second edition introduces readers to
important new voices in fields outside of law, including education and
psychology, and offers greatly expanded issues for discussion, updated reading
lists, and an extensive glossary of terms.

A timely update to this classic primer
Jean Stefancic is Professor and Clement Research Affiliate at the University of Alabama School of Law. Her books include No Mercy: How Conservative Think Tanks and Foundations Changed America’s Social Agenda. She and Delgado edited Critical Race Theory: The Cutting Edge.
Praise for the first edition: "Unlike other theorists, these people mean to change the world, not merely to 'ascertain how society organizes itself along racial lines and hierarchies, but to transform it for the better.' This book has served as my introduction to a field I wish I had started to cultivate and harvest much earlier." Bloomsbury Review "Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic, prolific contributors to and tireless propagators of the Critical Race Theory gospel, here combine their understandings in a marvellously readable overview of this path-breaking and controversial field of legal thought that will enlighten newcomers while offering new perspectives for critics as well as adherents." Derrick Bell, author of Faces at the Bottom of the Well
