Brett St Louis is a Professor in the Department of Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London, specializing in critical race theory, ethnicity studies, and postcolonial thought. His scholarly work spans over two decades, with publications from 1999 to 2023 demonstrating consistent engagement with questions of race, identity, and power structures. Dr. St Louis's research interests focus on Critical Race Theory, Ethnicity Studies, Postcolonial Theory, and Whiteness Studies. His work critically examines racial formation, the persistence of racial thinking in contemporary society, and the complex relationship between race, identity, and power. Early in his career, he published extensively on the sociology of sport and racial science in athletics, later evolving toward broader theoretical examinations of race as technology, racial injustice, and the possibilities (or impossibilities) of racial justice. His scholarship frequently engages with the work of Stuart Hall and CLR James, positioning him firmly within the British Cultural Studies tradition while pushing its boundaries through contemporary racial analysis. Analysis of St Louis's recent publications reveals a trajectory from examining race in specific contexts like sport toward more fundamental theoretical questions about race as a social and technological construct. His 2021-2023 work particularly focuses on molecular racialization, carceral methodologies, and the philosophical tensions inherent in pursuing racial justice. The recurring theme across his career is a sophisticated critique of how race operates in contemporary society despite claims of post-racialism. His scholarly influence extends through his editorial work, including editing special issues of Ethnicities journal and co-editing the 2008 New Formations issue on 'After '68: The Left and Twenty-First Century Politics.' He has also contributed significantly to the intellectual reception of Stuart Hall's work, as evidenced by his 2021 co-authored piece 'Stuart Hall, a peerless mediator.' St Louis has established himself as a significant voice in critical race scholarship, with particular expertise in the theoretical and philosophical dimensions of race. His work bridges cultural studies, sociology, and political theory, offering nuanced analyses that challenge both biological determinism and simplistic social constructivist approaches to race.
