Beschreibung
The UK is increasingly multicultural and diverse. In this context ideas about race, ethnicity, cultural difference and multiculture are central to both political debates and policy formation. Taking a theoretically informed approach and using an empirically focused analysis of key policy areas, Race, Multiculture and Social Policy treats the reader to a sophisticated and wide-ranging exploration of the relationship between policy interventions and race, ethnicity and multiculture in British society.
Organised into three parts, this book:
• Begins by exploring the changes in political, policy and academic debates around race and multiculture.
• Investigates social policy sites such as housing, education, policing and health, examining how they differentiate within and across ethnic categorisations.
• Concludes with a critical analysis of the future of policy trends in a multicultural society.
This is a timely and essential source for academics, policy makers and students of race and ethnicity in Social Policy, Sociology, Geography and Politics.
Exploring the relationship between race, multiculture and social policy, this text unpacks theoretical and political debates about social exclusion, social justice and policy intervention. From health to housing, employment to education, the text provides comprehensive analysis of social policy in a multicultural society.
