Racism, governance, and public policy : beyond human rights /
Sian, Katy P.,1984-author.
Law, Ian,author.
Sayyid, S.(Salman)author.
"This book presents a new framing of policy debates on the question of racism through a discursive critique of contemporary issues and contexts, drawing on a program of new European research carried out between 2010 and 2013, with a central focus on the UK. This includes analysis of the discursive construction of Muslims in three contexts: the workplace, education and the media. Informed by a fundamental critique of both the 'post-racial' and the limitations of human rights strategies, it identifies the ongoing significance of contemporary raciality in governance strategies and develops a new radical agenda for addressing these processes, advocating strategies of 'racism reduction.'"--Publisher's website.
