Theories of Race and Racism
Edited By: Les Back and John Solomos
EVEN FEW YEARS AGO, A COLLECTION of this kind would have been difficult to put together. This is not because questions about race and racism were not of importance in either social or political terms. Rather, the major difficulty would have been in finding the variety of studies that seek to address questions about how to theorise race and racism and develop conceptual tools for the analysis of the variety of ways in which they have shaped both past and contemporary societies. This is no longer the case, as is evidenced by the everexpanding range of books and journals that address questions about race, racism and related topics from a variety of disciplinary and conceptual perspectives (for an overview of some of these developments see Bulmer and Solomos 1999). It is also clear that there is growing academic and public recognition of the importance of studying these phenomena and developing conceptual tools for analysing the role and impact of racial inequality, racist movements and parties and forms of racial and ethnic violence.
