This exploration of one of the most concentrated immigrant
communities in Britain combines a fascinating narrative history, an
original theoretical analysis of the evolving relationship between
progressive left politics and ethnic minorities, and an incisive
critique of political multiculturalism. It recounts and analyses
the experiences of many of those who took part in over six decades
of political history that range over secular nationalism, trade
unionism, black radicalism, mainstream local politics, Islamism and
the rise and fall of the Respect Coalition. Through this Bengali
case study and examples from wider immigrant politics, it traces
the development and adoption of the concepts of popular frontism,
revolutionary stages theory and identity politics. It demonstrates
how these theories and tactics have cut across class-based
organisation and acted as an impediment to addressing
socio-economic inequality; and it argues for a left materialist
alternative. -- .
