Undoing Privilege: Unearned Advantage in a Divided World

Bob Pease

4.9/5 (10251 ratings)

Description:Critical social theories identify oppression as a key focus for social change oriented practice. For every group that is oppressed, one or more other groups are privileged in relation to it. In Undoing Privilege, Bob Pease argues that privilege, as the other side of oppression, has been given insufficient attention in both critical theories and in the practices of social change. This, he says, has allowed dominant groups to reinforce their dominance.Undoing Privilege explores each of the main sites of privilege, from Western dominance, class elitism and white and patriarchal privilege to the less well examined sites of heterosexual and able-bodied privilege. Drawing upon materialist, post-structural and psycho-social theories that address the structural, cultural and personal dimensions of privilege, Pease develops an intersectional analysis of these sites of dominance. This analysis points out that while the vast majority of people may be oppressed on at least one form of stratification, many are also privileged on another.Despite their investments in maintaining privilege, Pease demonstrates that members of privileged groups can self-critically challenge the internalised domination that reproduces their sense of entitlement and their prejudice against others. He also explores the potential and limitations of members of privileged groups becoming social justice allies against oppression and their own unearned advantage.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
