While there has been a wealth of research and conversation about the role of racism in shaping our social, political and economic structures, antiracism - its highly publicized counterpart - has been very little studied, discussed or debated. Veteran race scholar John Solomos argues in this slim intervention that we urgently need to re-focus research and activist agendas to address this gap in knowledge.
The core questions addressed in the book include: What does antiracism mean in the contemporary environment? How do states, political institutions and civil society define and practise antiracism? What is the role of alliances across race, class and gender in shaping possible futures beyond racism? Moving beyond the valuable work which has already uncovered the ways in which race and racism are made and re-made, these questions cut to how to develop meaningful political and policy initiatives framed by antiracist ideas and values. If we hope to make sense of the evolution of contemporary racisms in the world around us in order to tackle them head on, antiracism needs to be better understood.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
儘管有大量的研究和討論關於種族主義在塑造我們的社會、政治和經濟結構中的角色,但其高度被宣傳的對應概念——反種族主義,卻鮮少受到研究、討論或辯論。資深種族學者約翰·索洛莫斯在這本簡短的著作中主張,我們迫切需要重新聚焦研究和行動者的議程,以填補這一知識的空白。
本書探討的核心問題包括:在當代環境中,反種族主義意味著什麼?國家、政治機構和公民社會如何定義和實踐反種族主義?跨越種族、階級和性別的聯盟在塑造超越種族主義的未來中扮演什麼角色?這些問題超越了已經揭示種族和種族主義如何被創造和重塑的寶貴工作,直接切入如何發展以反種族主義思想和價值觀為框架的有意義的政治和政策倡議。如果我們希望理解當前世界中種族主義的演變,以便直接應對它們,反種族主義需要被更好地理解。
