Rethinking interventions to combat racism
Bok av Reena Bhavnani
All efforts to construct training programmes to eradicate racism have failed. Reena Bhavani demonstrates here that this is because racism itself is incorrectly or incompletely understood. By perceptively analysing the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry, she has been able to clarify the concept of racism and its constantly changing forms and manifestations in a way that has not been achieved before. With these complex and subtle issues explained, the reasons for the failure of courses designed to combat racism are revealed. It becomes possible to indicate ways forward that are based on sound understandings, and the book, concludes with recommendations that have the potential to change thinking about racism, its prevention and ultimate elimination from society.
