This Fourth Edition of a pioneering handbook
provides a critical analysis of the origins and evolution of political
and policy debates regarding race and racism in British society. Drawing
on a broad range of both theoretical and historical research, the focus
of the book is on the development of policies and debates in the period
from the second half of the 20th Century to the present. The book is
organized into twelve chapters which provide an overview of key trends,
situating the development of policies and developments in relation to
immigration and citizenship, race relations policies and broader agendas
about multiculturalism and living with difference. In the substantive
chapters of the book there is also a detailed discussion of such issues
as policing, urban unrest and protest, racist politics, black and ethnic
minority politics and conversations about multiculturalism. This new
edition engages with both the historical background as well as
contemporary developments to provide a novel and wide-ranging account of
the role that questions about race and racism play in British society.
