“Pushkala Prasad exposes the brutal realities of racial exploitation and dispossession that have defined capitalism throughout history. An essential read for anyone seeking to understand and challenge capitalism today”, Carl Rhodes, UTS Business School and author of Woke Capitalism. “Capitalism's Dark Complexion magnificently interrogates capitalism’s racialized foundations, advancing critical, historical insights into global systems of valuation and structural inequities”, Todd Bridgman, Victoria University of Wellington. “In gripping and clear prose, Capitalism’s Dark Complexion moves from Atlantic slavery to contemporary sex tourism, from Adam Smith to Black Lives Matter, revealing how racism has been part of capitalism from the beginning. This is an important book”, Angela Zimmerman, George Washington University. “This book offers a comprehensive and thought-provoking analysis of the often-overlooked relationship between racism and capitalism, along with its implications for the Global South”, Ernesto Noronha, Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad.
