This book presents a global overview of racism against immigrants
within and in the name of the welfare state. Rich in documents and
historical perspective, it analyses politics, practices, and
discourses of welfare racism through the exam of discriminatory
laws, measures and speeches by institutional actors, public
figures, and organizations. The strength and persistence of this
form of racism are due to several factors, including racism's
structural position in modern society, a colonial root of welfare
state, the intrinsic limits of social rights in capitalism, and
punitive migration policies. An instrument of selection, exclusion
and stigmatisation, welfare racism is a distinguishing feature of
anti-immigrant institutional policies, which became specially
aggressive in the neoliberal era with the dismantling of the
welfare state and social rights. Integrating perspectives from
Belgium, Brazil, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Japan, Spain,
Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States, welfare racism
results a global and structured phenomenon concerning world labour
as a whole, producing inequalities and division in the working
class.
