In the 21st century, new ethnic groups are forming faster than ever
before and the role of race and ethnicity studies has evolved in
response to this. From policy issues around housing and crime,
through to debates about asylum and media representations,
sociologists must encounter and explore a vast range of issues in
this ever changing field. This book gives an overview of the most
important topics that affect the making of race and ethnic
relations in contemporary societies. It goes beyond general
definitions to explain exactly how and what these issues and
debates can tell us about modern society. Using research and
statistics to shed light on the most cutting-edge issues, the book
takes each major topic in turn and helps readers to think through
race and ethnicity on the basis of the most recent thinking in the
field. Each chapter explains a range of theoretical and conceptual
perspectives, whilst approaching complex ideas in an accessible and
insightful way. Written and edited by recognized experts in the
field, Race and Ethnicity in the 21st Century will be an essential
point of reference for researchers and practitioners and key
reading for all students of race and ethnicity.
