The chapters in this volume examine the racial and ethnic landscape
of Britain in a contemporary era of neoliberalism and financial
crisis. A key aspect of neoliberal thought is the belief that we
live in a 'post-racial' society in which the problems of racism and
xenophobia have been overcome. However, cultural retrenchment and
coded xenophobia have been sweeping the political terrain,
accompanied by 'new racisms' and 'new racial subjects' that only
close contextual analysis can unpick. The scholarship contained in
this collection challenges those who suggest that we live in a
post-racial era. By focusing on particular locations in Britain at
a particular moment, the volume explores local stories of 'race'
and racism across changing sociopolitical ground. This book is
essential reading for scholars and students of race, racism,
diaspora, multiculturalism, post-colonialism, transnationalism and
post-race. This book was originally published as a special issue of
Ethnic and Racial Studies.
