In the first book of its kind, Bassel and Emejulu explore minority
women's experiences of and resistances to austerity measures in
France and Britain. Minority women are often portrayed as passive
victims. However, Minority women and austerity demonstrates how
they use their race, class, gender and legal status as a resource
for collective action in the face of the neoliberal colonisation of
non-governmental organisations, the failures of left-wing politics
and the patronising initiatives of policy-makers. Using in-depth
case studies, this book explores the changing relations between the
state, the market and civil society which create opportunities and
dilemmas for minority women activists. Through an intersectional
'politics of survival' these women seek to subvert the dominant
narratives of 'crisis' and 'activism'.
