Racism And Public Policy

This collection stands as a timely reminder that to ignore the racial factor in the globalization forces is as mistaken as eliminating class analysis. The essays published here supplement the literature of comparative race relations from the standpoint of the theory of institutional racism and its effect on public policies such as immigration, citizenship, security and policing.

Yusuf Bangura is Research Co-ordinator at the United Nations Research Institute for Social Development for projects on Public Sector Reform and Crisis States, and Economic Policy Making and Democratization. Rodolfo Stavenhagen is a Professor at El Colegio de Mexico.
