More About the Author
Product Description
Product Description
Questioning received notions of multiculturalism, this volume develops a critique of essentialist definitions of race, nation and ethnicity across key areas of cultural policy and practice. Starting from the "New Ethnicities" thesis of Stuart Hall, it focuses on three major concerns: ways of tackling popular cultures of racism; the histories of previously marginalized racisms and sexisms; and the impact of changing patterns of migration on the local/global city. The contributors explore the relations of new and changing ethnicities, both black and white, to the old racisms that continue to be reproduced through dominant forms of governance in Britain and the west. It seeks to combine the theoretical with the empirical, and academic analysis with oral testimony.
