In many European countries the extreme right have refined their
electoral programmes under the rubric of nationalist-populist
slogans and have adopted subtle forms of racism. The move away from
overt neo-fascist discourse has, allowed these parties to expand
their electoral support as populist nationalist parties.
Paradoxically, this has led to an increase in racist and
anti-Semitic discourse. In this on-site analysis, Michal
Krzyzanowski and Ruth Wodak describe a confluence of racism and
xenophobia, and show how that union creates a new kind of racism.
The "new" racism differs from the older kinds in that it is usually
not expressed in overtly racial terms. Instead, the justifications
that are typically employed concern protecting jobs, eliminating
abuse of welfare benefits, or cultural incompatibilities. The new
racism exploits xenophobia rooted in ethnocentrism, male
chauvinism, and ordinary prejudices that are often unconscious or
routinized. For these reasons, the new racism can be defined as
"syncretic," a mixture of many, sometimes contradictory, racist and
xenophobic beliefs and stereotypes. Racism as ideology and practice
is alive and well. This important book aims to provide
understanding of the many socio-political and historical processes
involved in such expressions of institutional and individual
racism--processes which are not necessarily evident from more overt
or traditional expressions of racism. This is an innovative look at
the political study of language as well as new instances of race,
ethnicity, and class in present-day Europe.
