Most accounts of ethnic and race relations in Western states are optimistic at heart. They assume that equal participation by minorities will be achieved, because it is a "public good" from which citizens will benefit. This title challenges these idealistic commentaries.
Most accounts of ethnic and race relations in Western states are optimistic at heart.They assume that equal participation by minorities will be achieved because it is a "public good" from which citizens will benefi t. Social justice will prevail. In this topical and disturbing book, Geoff Dench challenges these idealistic commentaries, showing that in many instances they do not produce convincing analyses of the position of minorities. He suggests that analysts neglect to explore the web of real interests behind public affi rmations of commitment to integration.
