The Oxford Modern Britain series comprises authoritative
introductory books on all aspects of the social structure of modern
Britain. Lively and accessible, the books will be the first points
of reference for anyone interested in the state of contemporary
Britain. They will be invaluable to those taking courses in the
social sciences. This is an expanded second edition of a
well-established introduction to the role and importance of race
and ethnicity in contemporary British society, relevant to students
of sociology and many other disciplines. All sections of the book
have been revised to include the most recently available data. A
new chapter has been added on the criminal justice system in the
light of the Stephen Lawrence enquiry. In addition the sections on
citizenship have been revised to take account of recent
developments. The first chapters set out some of the key conceptual
issues in the study of race and ethnicity in modern Britain.
Subsequent chapters examine the historical background to migration
and ethnic diversity. Drawing attention to a key distinction
between difference and diversity, the book examines the interplay
of inequality, citizenship, and public policy in a number of areas
central to life in modern Britain, including: employment,
education, housing, health, criminal justice and political
representation. The book concludes with a look to the future to
assess how a range of trends, including developments in the
European Union, the resurgence of racism, and developing patterns
of social mobility may pose challenges for the shape and direction
of British society as it enters a new millennium.
