This book explores the health and healthcare experiences of the
fastest-growing sector of Britain's population; people of mixed
ethnicity, contextualised with reference to 'race' and ethnicity,
immigration, demography and health status. Informed by a
predominantly Foucauldian theoretical framework, the book utilises
narrative data collection and an innovative analytical process, the
construction of metanarratives, to access a stage of analysis
beyond the more usual micro and macro levels. The research
investigates the manner in which people of mixed ethnicity
construct and define their identities, how ethnicity impacts both
on health status and the nature of the healthcare experience, and
the doctor/patient power relationship. Findings suggest that there
is no significant link between ethnicity and health status, but
that the healthcare experiences of people of mixed ethnicity are
more negative than those of the white population. Additionally,
evidence is presented that doctors suppress the discourse of health
and mixed ethnicity.
