内容説明

This text provides an introduction to the politics of British race relations. Few issues have aroused greater conflict in British society than that of race. The issue has resulted, directly or indirectly, in problems of discrimination, urban disorders, far-right anti-immigrant activity, and racially-exlusionary immigration policies. This book examined these political phenomena in their historical context and puts forward an analysis which helps the reader explain their causes and consequences, The author emphasizes the difficulties encountered by the formal political process based on party competition in managing the race issue; moreover, he argues, since 1962, the issue is best characterized by its virtual invisibility in British public policy. The book lays the foundation for all readers approaching the topic of British race relations for the first time, whilst also providing several questions regarding the "success" of Britain's multi-racial experiment for the more advanced reader.
