Does the concept of ethnicity divide the oppressed or unite
minorities? Is the term "community" a dangerous fiction? What are
the relations between the liberal capitalist democratic state and
racialized minority groups? The contributors to this book confront
and discuss these questions, bringing together ideas on urban
social theory, contemporary cultural change and analysis of racial
surbordination in order to explore the relationship between racism,
the city and the state. The book concentrates on the urban context
of the process of racialization, demonstrating that the city
provides the institutional framework for racial segregation, a key
process whereby racialization has been reproduced and sustained.
Individual chapters explore the profound divisions inscribed on the
face of the city, showing for example that ethnicity is more
powerful than social class in moulding the identities of new
migrants to California, and that the reconstruction of French
capitalism has opened new opportunities for the growth of
right-wing popularism.
