This book traces current debates on the critical theory of racism in Germany and emphasizes its contribution to the global discourse on racism and anti-racism. It provides a comprehensive examination of the key debates, blind spots, and pitfalls of this theory while exploring the politicization of discussions surrounding the relationship between anti-semitism and racism. The contributions shed light on the current state and weaknesses of anti-racism in Germany, including government measures, while offering alternative understandings of difference and highlighting the importance of solidarity in combating racism.The concept of 'structural racism' is presented as central to political conflicts, showing how this term is used in anti-racist movements and the barriers to its discussion. This book examines the link between state violence, restrictive migration policies, police practices, and the moral panic surrounding 'clan crime' through the lens of 'carceral racism.' It also analyses the crucial role of language in creating racist distinctions, focusing on how the German language can function as a marker of difference and a 'linguistic hiding place for race.' The discussion extends to the methodological challenges of integrating critical theories of racism with quantitative methods.This book is an essential read for scholars, students, and activists interested in critical race theory, German studies, migration studies, and global anti-racist movements. It offers valuable insights for anyone seeking to understand how Germany's specific historical and social context shapes contemporary debates on racism within a broader international framework.The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.

With global cooperation on refugee protection under mounting strain, understanding the role of individual states has never been more urgent. Canada in the Global Refugee Regime offers the first comprehensive look at Canada's involvement with the institutions and norms of this regime and the politics that shape refugee protection worldwide.Bringing together leading experts from multiple disciplines, this volume explores how Canada has influenced global refugee responses and where its impact has been more muted. Chapters examine the country's actions in international forums; its resettlement and sponsorship initiatives; its engagement in key regional contexts such as Latin America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East; and the links between refugee policy and foreign policy. Contributors reflect on the relationship between Canada's international leadership and its domestic practices, offering a nuanced account that moves beyond simplistic narratives of benevolence.Canada in the Global Refugee Regime invites readers to rethink the regime itself: not as a fixed system, but as a contested space shaped by the interests and actions of states and other participants. It is an essential resource for scholars, students, and policy actors seeking to understand how a single state navigates, contributes to, and is shaped by the global politics of refugee protection.

Canada is a nation forged by immigration, but for many its promise is eclipsed by exclusion and precarity. A Renewed Canadian Welcome brings together the voices of those who experience the system firsthand to ask a question fundamental to public justice: What would our immigration policies look like if they were reimagined from a human rights perspective, informed by lived experience?Blending personal narrative with sharp policy critique, this book unpacks topics such as refugee resettlement, immigration detention, labour exploitation, and family separation. It centres the perspectives of migrants, refugees, and advocates, describing the many barriers they face and detailing how, working together and with allied organizations, they have overcome bureaucratic hurdles, developed strategies, and mobilized policy goals. Contributors offer practical policy proposals that will transform Canada's immigration program: develop a human rights-based approach that responds to the precarity of all migrants; draw from the expertise of migrants and refugees to design effective policies; and strengthen civil society's role in immigration policymaking.Born of the work of Citizens for Public Justice, a national research and advocacy organization, A Renewed Canadian Welcome is a must-read for those advocating for human rights in immigration policy. It is a compelling call to reimagine Canada's approach to immigration as one that affirms dignity, equity, and justice for all.

Across the globe, tens of thousands of alleged 'criminal' migrants find themselves trapped in limbo. They are unwanted in the countries hosting them but cannot be deported because they are stateless, because human rights law or lack of political will prevents it, or because they themselves do not cooperate. These individuals - referred to as Undesirable But Unremovable migrants (UBUs) - include former World War II concentration camp guards, minor drug traffickers, rapists, acquitted genocidaires, and children of alleged terrorists. Their continued presence in host countries often sparks intense political debate, complex legal proceedings, and public controversy. In some cases, they are passed back and forth between multiple countries.Taking a historical and global perspective, this book traces the emergence of UBUs, shows how their numbers have increased dramatically over time, and reveals the persistent inability of states to develop coherent policy responses. This failure has led to politically charged environments in host countries and profound challenges for the migrants themselves.The book benefits anyone engaged in the study, development, or implementation of governmental policies concerning migrants accused of being involved in crime.

The presence of hundreds of thousands ethnic Koreans in Japan, or "zainichi Koreans," is one of the visible legacies of Japanese colonialism. A surprising and influential group among zainichi Koreans that persists to this day is Chongryon, the only pro-North Korean diasporic group based in a capitalist society. Chongryon historically represented the central grassroots force seeking to liberate Koreans from Japan's imperial and neo-imperial influences. At the heart of the Chongryon community stands a political organization equipped with a central bureaucracy in Tokyo, with a headquarters in nearly every prefecture. Often called a de facto embassy of North Korea, the Chongryon organization has, in effect, functioned as a state within another state-operating hundreds of schools, banks, hospitals, business associations, publishing houses, and many other institutions across Japan. Based on extensive archival research and nearly 250 original interviews collected with co-researcher KumHee Cho, who was raised within the Chongryon community, Sayaka Chatani offers a sweeping social history of this secretive, protective community in xenophobic Japanese society. Weaving together personal accounts and situating them in a multi-layered, transnational political context, the book offers a finely textured, intimate narrative of the community's tumultuous history and decolonial praxis. Through the stories of Chongryon, this book provides a bottom-up analysis of power politics among zainichi Koreans and reshapes our understanding of Japanese history, Korean history, and the Cold War in Asia.

This book examines Japan's transformation into a country of immigration, offering a timely perspective on how a society long regarded as homogeneous is adapting to new forms of diversity.Drawing on sixty-two in-depth interviews with young people of Chinese, Korean, and Brazilian origin, it explores how the children of immigrants navigate Japan's demanding education system and the broader challenges of social inclusion. Schools emerge as crucial arenas where opportunities for integration intersect with persistent inequalities, shaping young people's life chances and identities. Combining rich personal narratives with established theories of immigrant incorporation, the book bridges empirical and theoretical research, situating Japan within global migration debates. It challenges the notion of Japan as an exceptional case, demonstrating instead how its experience mirrors wider international patterns of demographic change, labour shortages, and cultural negotiation.Offering fresh insights into immigrant integration in a non-Western context by making Japan's case a vital reference point for understanding how societies worldwide respond to increasing diversity, this book will appeal to scholars, students, and policymakers in sociology, migration studies, education, and Japanese studies.

This book offers a rich and innovative study of multiracial social worlds in early-twentieth-century London, Liverpool, and Hong Kong - three port cities linked by their importance to global British shipping networks and circuits of Chinese migration. In these cities, Chinese, Black, South Asian and European people came together to foster multiracial communities which have been largely forgotten, remembered only through sensationalist fictions that reflected white anxieties about racial mixing. Nadine Attewell considers these vibrant multiracial worlds through the eyes of those who knew them best: people of mixed Chinese descent, for whom interracial intimacies were features of everyday life. Mobilizing a wide range of archival materials, including photographs, community and family histories, and wartime intelligence reports, Attewell reconstructs the social experiences of people like Vera Leung, a working-class woman of Irish and Chinese descent growing up in Liverpool's interwar Chinatown, and Percy Chang, a Jamaican man of Chinese and African descent with a wide social network in Hong Kong. Rather than centering identity as the focus of mixed-race people's struggles, she asks what they did and with whom. Drawing on queer and feminist scholarship and integrating British, Asian, and diasporic histories, Attewell presents new ways of thinking about the everyday meanings of interracial intimacy, and practices of relation and survival under global conditions of colonial capitalist rule.

Zhongping Chen examines the origins, rise, and reform of the Cantonese-dominated Chinese diaspora in Canada between 1788 and 1898. Combining a diasporic approach with both qualitative and quantitative analyses of Chinese and English documents, including previously untapped archival records of secret societies, community organizations, and family businesses, this book reveals the transnational mobility of Chinese migrants and the expansion of their migration network across southern China, the American West, and Pacific Canada. Chen especially highlights the cross-cultural development of Chinese migration networks through interactions with white and Indigenous peoples as well as Western culture ranging from racism and settler colonialism to constitutionalism. The book features the first intensive examination of Chinese migrants' engagement in the transpacific Anglo-American fur trade, the gold rushes spreading from California to British Columbia, the construction of the Canadian Pacific Railway, and community reforms across North American Chinatowns. Through innovative theoretical approaches and meticulous analysis of archival sources, Chen demonstrates how the Cantonese-dominated diaspora in Canada exerted profound but long-neglected and under-researched influence on sociopolitical changes in Qing China, Canadian society, and the Chinese communities across the Pacific Rim, including American Chinatowns, going beyond the nation-state frameworks in Chinese Canadian and Chinese American studies.

Tens of thousands of mostly younger Black people went to rural Louisiana in 2007 to support the Jena 6, Black students who were overcharged after a school fight. We examine the construction of two narratives. The powerful Jena 6 narrative told how the conflict began when nooses were hung on the school grounds, linking historic racial violence to modern injustice. This narrative emphasized student agency and downplayed documented adult actions. A second narrative about organizing the campaign incorrectly said that existing organizations had ignored the case. We use published sources to trace the ordinary processes as activists, journalists, and organizations became involved in the campaign through three phases - regional organizing, nationalization, scale shift to cascade. In the last phase, many saw this as a historic reinvigoration of the Black movement. Circulating narratives inspired participation by stressing youthful agency and spontaneity. More accurate accounts are better for theory and action.

Beginning in the colonial era and growing through the American Revolution and the Southern plantation system, slaveholders' violent police regime continued after Emancipation, through Reconstruction, to today. Moving across time, space, and place, White Power uncovers how slaveholders created their own white supremacist police and government to deny Black people rights, power, and humanity. Legal historian Gautham Rao introduces us to laws that empowered white people to forcibly exercise their desired racial superiority over Black people, shows how they spread from the South throughout the nation, and traces the rebellions, fugitivity, activism, and legal systems that challenged them. Rao's narrative includes slaveholders, lawmakers, and the Ku Klux Klan, dramatic escapes by runaway enslaved people, abolitionist activism in courtroom showdowns, and pitched battles between white paramilitaries and enslaved rebels. He offers a new interpretation of the history of policing in the US, centering the institution and legacy of slavery and speaking to the origins of today's persistence of white vigilance, white supremacist militia groups, and white racist cops determined to maintain power over Black people by force. Equally determined, however, was Black Americans' refusal to accept it.

Bryce, Benjamin, Grounds for Exclusion: Race, Health, and Disability in Argentine Immigration Policy, 1876-1932. (InterConnections: the Global Twentieth Century) 288 pp. 2026:5 (U. North Carolina Pr., US) <761-366>

Argentina has been one the most important destinations for international labor migrants in the modern world. But while it was long imagined as a nation of immigrants, a closer look at its history and policies reveals that the country's doors were only open to certain people. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, officials developed a long list of grounds for exclusion that deterred many people from ever boarding a ship to the country. Travelers who did come to Argentina were frequently barred at ports of entry on account of race, health, or disability. Tracing the attempts of European, Asian, and Middle Eastern migrants to enter Argentina, Benjamin Bryce shows how the modern state worked to privilege white supremacy and expansion over diversity and magnanimity. As Argentine officials, politicians, and influential thinkers envisioned their country's future, they tried to define the ideal citizens who would live, work, vote, and reproduce in Argentina-and the characteristics of those who would not. Anyone deemed unhealthy or disabled was labeled unproductive or a potential burden on the state. Race often shaped notions of health and productivity and therefore determined who was welcome. Bryce's thorough analysis of immigration exclusions reconceptualizes Argentina's long-accepted reputation as a haven for newcomers.

In the summer of 1872, a white doctor and a formerly enslaved African American farmer walked through a field near Newton Grove, North Carolina, and mapped out the dimensions of a new clapboard church. The men, John Carr Monk and Solomon Monk, had been raised together on a nearby plantation. While neighbors attended newly segregated Protestant congregations, the Monks converted to Catholicism, which offered a framework of racial universalism. Alongside the church, the parish ran parochial schools for the area's Black and white children long before state public schools existed. But visits from night riders emphasized the congregation's threat to the social order. Despite these threats and others, the church used their common theology and local history to navigate the nativism of the 1920s and the bishop' s decision to segregate. Then, in 1953, the church community reintegrated. While the parish was far from a utopia, it embraced the daily struggle to embody the true church that its founders believed God desired. Drawing from archives, ethnographic observations, and the living histories of parish members, Susan B. Ridgely offers a rich understanding of the ongoing interplay of race, religion, and rural life in this parish, in North Carolina, and in the United States.

The presence of Shi?ite communities in Western Europe dates to the late nineteenth century, with Britain as the primary destination for immigration, as well as notable communities developing in Belgium, France, Germany, Ireland, the Netherlands and Scandinavia. Exploring selected encounters of Twelver Shi?ite Muslims with the European West, this study examines local and transnational religious organization to assess socio-political integration. Its central thesis defines European Shi?ism through peripheral engagement and religious retention. Building on a range of language sources, interviews with Shi?ite spokesmen and fieldwork in Iran, Britain, the Netherlands, and Germany, Matthijs van den Bos identifies European Shi?ism with a religious mode of engagement involving hierarchization of collective self and other identities. Shi?ite parties with greater distance to high politico-religious authorities abroad are seen more likely to engage in cultural exchange with their European milieu. On one side stand ethnically varied Shi?ite organizations with limited engagement of others in Europe. The other shows civic outreach, ritual transformation, and integrationist theology.

?Since 1989 Russian-speaking Jews, often raised and socialized in the Soviet Union, have "dispersed" in great numbers to Western countries and Israel. Even there, they retain their own cultural and political identities. In this volume, prominent authors provide an impressive overview about how this strong transnational Jewish diaspora group participates in social life in North America, Israel, Europe and elsewhere, but also works to strengthen Jewish networks and communities. In many places Russian-speaking Jews are considered to be highly educated, politically keen, and anything but conflict-averse. This has resulted in an independent strand of contemporary Judaism.

Story(ing) Statistical Strategies Using a Critical Race Feminista Quantitative Praxis is a groundbreaking book that reimagines the relationship between storytelling, mathematics, and statistics. Grounded in Critical Race Theory and Chicana Feminist traditions, the text demonstrates how stories can animate numbers, challenging deficit narratives and reclaiming the mathematical wisdom and genius of Communities of Color.Through personal narratives, theoretical insights, and methodological innovations, the authors chart a pathway for transforming statistical practices into acts of resistance, remembrance, and care. Each chapter interweaves lived experiences of exclusion and resilience with critical frameworks such as racial realism, intersectionality, and cultural intuition. The book foregrounds how story(ing) numbers - treating data as narrative and action - opens possibilities for reclaiming mathematics as a communal, embodied, and justice-oriented practice. Case studies on educational pipelines, GIS mapping, and epistemic network analysis illustrate how computational tools can be repurposed to visualize inequities while honoring the dignity of marginalized communities. Ultimately, this work offers a praxis for engaging data in ways that resist invisibility, expose structural inequities, and advance equity, healing, and liberation.This book is written for scholars, graduate students, educators, and practitioners across education, sociology, ethnic studies, and data sciences. It will especially benefit those interested in critical methodologies, QuantCrit, Women of Color feminist theory, Chicana Feminist and approaches to research-providing tools to rethink how numbers and stories together can advance justice in education and beyond

Reproductive politics have become acutely urgent as we witness increased sexual and reproductive repression around the world. This reproductive repression is unfolding alongside widespread economic precarity, untenable costs of living, and demands for higher productivity. What feels like the emergence of a novel reproductive and economic dystopia, however, is a long-lasting reality for poor Black women globally. Comparing Senegal and North Carolina, Harper-Shipman shows how states and markets routinely turn to poor Black women's fertility to resolve enduring social and economic crises. Moving through formative moments that draw reproductive health, gender, race, and labor into closer proximity - from the transatlantic slave trade and colonialism through to the present - Harper-Shipman argues that reproductive health policies are essential to understanding international regimes for regulating resource distribution and recreating future stores of differentiated labor across time and space. Unruly Fertility attends to the innovative and unconventional forms of resistance that poor Black women use to decouple their productive and reproductive labor from state efforts to manage their fertility. These discreet forms of resistance establish new possibilities that scaffold decolonial reproductive politics. Harper-Shipman compels us to view reproductive politics as an enduring battle over which bodies deserve the fruits of modernity and which bodies get perpetually marked as the vehicles for carrying all of humanity forward.

This book uses rigorous case studies with definitive conclusions; this work develops a critical Cultural Studies perspective on both the CCIs and diversity politics.Through examining sophisticated processes through which race is negotiated and produced across film, television, public relations, and advertising, this book reveals how these industries simultaneously understand race uniformly while operating through heterogeneous structures that both address and enact racism. This analysis exposes the contradictory nature of creative industries that publicly champion inclusivity while perpetuating systemic inequalities through their operational structures. By examining specific sectors within the CCIs, the book illustrates how racial difference is managed, commodified, and reproduced through seemingly progressive diversity initiatives. Nwonka and Keddo call for a radical reconceptualisation of how we understand the CCIs' production and management of racial difference. Challenging readers to move beyond surface-level diversity metrics toward deeper structural analysis of how creative industries function as sites of racial negotiation.Race and Racism in the Cultural and Creative Industries' critical examination provides essential insights for scholars, practitioners, and policymakers working within creative industries, offering frameworks for understanding the complex relationship between cultural production, racial identity, and systemic inequality in contemporary Britain.

Revised and updated edition of the groundbreaking book on Black women in comic artThe 2018 release of Marvel's blockbuster Black Panther film catapulted African American comics and animation into the limelight, with strong Black women characters at the forefront. Black Women in Sequence showcases the deep history of women of African descent in comics subculture. From the 1971 appearance of the Skywald Publications character "the Butterfly" - the first Black female superheroine in a comic book - to contemporary comic books, graphic novels, film, manga, and video gaming, a growing number of Black women are becoming producers, viewers, and subjects of sequential art.As the first detailed investigation of Black women's participation in comic art, Black Women in Sequence, first published in 2015, examines the representation, production, and transnational circulation of women of African descent in the sequential art world. This new edition features additional interviews, updates, and a new chapter on the wave of Black female characters that appeared in TV immediately before and following Black Panther's success. An essential read for understanding the dynamics of race and gender in American comics, Black Women in Sequence demonstrates why narratives about women of African descent should and do matter to the comic book world and to writers, artists, fans, and readers.Praise for the first edition"Engaging and provocative, Black Women in Sequence is relevant not only to comic scholars, but to anyone with an interest in how difference is represented using visual rhetoric." - Feminist Media Studies"For every little Black girl and Black woman, who imagine themselves coloring both inside and outside the lines, Black Women in Sequence literally fills in the blank spaces, highlighting the contributions of Black Women in the genres of comics, graphic novels, and anime." -Mark Anthony Neal, author of Looking for Leroy: Illegible Black Masculinities

Race as a concept has had a fraught role in the history of Classics, woven into its formation as an academic discipline. While the texts and artefacts of the ancient Mediterranean world provide complex understandings of what race might mean and how it might operate, they have also provided fodder for modern racial ideologies. This Companion offers a wide-ranging and groundbreaking overview of 'race' and 'racism' in ancient Mediterranean cultures and as well as in the formation of Classics as a discipline. Through twenty-four chapters written by a team of international scholars, it clarifies the terms and concepts that are central to contemporary theories of race and explores the extent to which they can be applied to the study of the ancient Mediterranean world, in and beyond Greece and Rome. It also showcases various concrete examples of how Classics has been shaped by the intertwined histories of race and colonialism.

Artero, Maurizio, Volunteering, Migration and Citizenship: The Role of Volunteering in Constructing Inclusive Societies. (Routledge Studies in Political Sociology) 170 pp. 2026:3 (Routledge, UK) <761-1370>

Volunteering, Migration and Citizenship brings together the fields of migration studies and volunteering research to juxtapose the study of volunteering by migrants with the study of volunteering for migrants.While in the social sciences volunteering has often been interpreted as the result of a renunciation of the transformation of society - a regression to pre-modern forms of helping the needy, or a retreat from ideals of social justice - this book takes an unconventional position by pointing to the potential of volunteering in the field of migration. Drawing on a study of volunteering for and by immigrants in Italy over the last eight years, it shows how volunteering not only responds to the logic of depoliticisation and ethical citizenship, but can also contribute to extending the social boundaries of society towards a more just and welcoming society. Crucially, it argues that volunteering in the field of migration can be situated within the domain of acts of citizenship, and that volunteering can take on a political character, enabling citizens and migrants alike to engage in micro-political acts.Offering an innovative and unconventional look at the intersection of migration and volunteering, it crosses different themes and will appeal to an interdisciplinary audience in social movement studies, political sociology, civil society studies, cultural geography, migration studies and citizenship studies.

A. J. Cade's Death or Victory offers the first in-depth history of the Louisiana Native Guards, pioneering African American regiments within the Union army. Originating as a division of the New Orleans Home Guards in May 1861, the Native Guards consisted of free Black and Creole men who leveraged the city's established military customs to gain entry into the Home Guards. Although not officially part of the Confederate forces, their involvement compelled the federal government to contemplate forming a similar regiment, setting the stage for their transition to the Union army the following year. Cade's research highlights the Native Guards' crucial role as a testing ground for Black participation in the Civil War. Abraham Lincoln, the War Department, and the entire nation regarded these early regiments as an experiment in understanding the implications of Black service. The Native Guards exceeded expectations, engaging in significant battles and sieges. Their achievements paved the way for broader Black involvement in Louisiana and eventually throughout the Union army. Prominent figures such as Frederick Douglass cited the Native Guards as evidence of Black Americans' entitlement to full citizenship and postwar freedom, an opinion later echoed by Lincoln. Cade's work challenges existing Civil War narratives by shedding light on the overlooked contributions of the Louisiana Native Guards, rectifying misconceptions, and highlighting Black and Creole individuals who fought for their nation. In addition to revising Civil War historiography, Cade's study also contributes to a more nuanced understanding of race and class in nineteenth-century New Orleans. Cade shows how the Native Guards reflected the unique racial dynamics of the city, where free Black and Creole men of color had long enjoyed a degree of social and economic autonomy. These men were often educated, property owning, and deeply invested in the city's civic life. Their service in the Native Guards was not just about fighting for the Union; it was also about asserting their rights as citizens and challenging the racial hierarchies that sought to deny them full participation in American society. By examining the motivations and experiences of these men, Cade provides a compelling portrait of a community that defied easy categorization and played a pivotal role in shaping the course of the Civil War.

How can migration studies respond to the decolonial challenge? International and interdisciplinary, this timely book directly confronts issues of ongoing colonialism and a re-evaluation of migration studies' epistemic, institutional and intellectual foundations. The book proposes postcolonial frameworks for conceptualizing and researching migration while considering the scope and potential for decolonization of the field.Contributors highlight the deep and enduring links between migration studies and colonialism, confronting the spectres of enslavement, Indigenous dispossession and worldwide indenture. They address the field's relationship with borders and governance, outlining critical issues such as power dynamics, the concept of othering and territoriality, alongside a nuanced examination of the notions of the migrant and the refugee. The book ultimately emphasises the transformative influence of emerging critical and radical traditions within contemporary migration studies.This is a valuable resource for scholars and students of migration studies across the social sciences and addresses the state of the field in a time of intellectual decolonization.

In spite of the double burden of racial and gender discrimination, African-American women have developed a rich intellectual tradition that is not widely known. Patricia Hill Collins's Black Feminist Thought has become a landmark book and the first to skilfully synthesize the many strands of Black feminist thought into a powerful, coherent argument for social justice.Patricia Hill Collins explores the words and ideas of Black feminist intellectuals and writers, both within the academy and without, providing a rich interpretive framework for the work of such prominent Black feminist thinkers as Angela Davis, bell hooks, Alice Walker, and Audre Lorde. Drawing from fiction, poetry, music, and oral history, the result is a brilliantly crafted and revolutionary book whose message is as important today as upon its first publication.This Routledge Classics edition, which includes a new Preface by the author, replaces the Thirtieth Anniversary edition.

Migration on the Ballot? reexamines the 1964 election contest at Smethwick. It considers the impact of deindustrialisation, urban redevelopment, and migration on the town, alongside the candidates and parties who stood, and how commentators have shaped our understanding of the result.The 1964 election was supposed to be a success for Labour leader Harold Wilson. Yet while his party returned to power after thirteen years in opposition, the defeat of shadow cabinet minister Patrick Gordon Walker by the Conservative Peter Griffiths at Smethwick overshadowed Labour's victory. In a town affected by economic, urban, and demographic change, Griffiths ran a campaign most remembered for its anti-migrant rhetoric. A 'safe' Labour seat in the West Midlands not only voted Conservative, but also became a metonym for 'racial politics', influencing national debates about migration and impacting the new Labour Government's agenda. However, despite its continued notoriety, the campaign remains under-interrogated, with scholarly attention notable either for its obsolescence or brevity. This study seeks to understand how far these Conservative appeals actually determined the outcome, or whether a more complicated story lays beneath.This book will be of interest to scholars, students, and those interested in modern British political history, elections and their outcomes.

This book reveals how policies, public sentiments, and international negotiations converged to reshape migration governance in the 1970s, a pivotal decade which serves as a crucial starting point for grappling with one of the twenty-first century's defining issues.Expansive government interventions, growing public resistance, and the first serious efforts at global migration governance left an enduring legacy. Tracing the shift from relative North-South openness to new restrictions and from East-West closure to cautious openness, the book explores how migration governance transformed in response to economic pressures, decolonisation, and Cold War geopolitics.Covering case studies from Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, and Australia, contributors analyse the emergence of migration as a political flashpoint-from legislative change and international diplomacy to grassroots activism. The book innovates by connecting diverse world regions and actors-state and non-state alike-and by reassessing the role of international organisations such as the ILO, UNHCR, and ICEM.Essential reading for academics and general readers alike, The Global Migration Turn offers a ground-breaking interpretation of the 1970s as a turning point in global migration governance. It equips readers with critical historical insight into contemporary challenges surrounding migration and international cooperation.

When it comes to Confederate monuments, there is no common ground. Debates over their meaning have sparked legislative battles, courtroom fights, and public protests that sometimes turn destructive. These conflicts have persisted for over a century, but never with today's intensity. In No Common Ground, historian Karen L. Cox examines the rise, preservation, and contestation of Confederate monuments. She explores what these statues meant to their builders and how movements arose to challenge them. Cox traces the forces behind symbols of white supremacy and how antimonument sentiment-suppressed during the Jim Crow era-reemerged with the civil rights movement and grew after the Voting Rights Act of 1965. Monument defenders used gerrymandering and heritage laws to block removals, while civil rights activists fought to reclaim public space and history. This second edition includes a new preface tracing developments in the monument conflict since 2020-from George Floyd's murder to the removals, legal battles, and federal actions that followed-revealing a nation still divided, with no common ground in sight.

ISBN 978-0-8071-8590-2 hard ¥8,919.- (税込) US$ 39.95

Melissa Daggett's Eugene and Eulalie is an epic story of love, race, prosperity, and legal maneuvering. It chronicles for the first time in a comprehensive way the largely forgotten lives of Eulalie Mandeville, a free woman of color, and her white partner, Eugene Macarty. Mandeville and Macarty, both descendants of elite colonial families, began an interracial relationship in the 1790s that endured for more than half a century and produced five children. It also led to Mandeville's phenomenal rise to the pinnacle of wealth and success within the unique tripartite racial structure of nineteenth-century New Orleans. Daggett uses the voluminous Nicolas Theodore Macarty et al. vs. Eulalie Mandeville f.w.c. (1848) court case to examine how an interracial relationship continued for more than fifty years despite onerous laws during the Spanish regime and the antebellum era that complicated such partnerships. She examines the origins of the Macarty and Mandeville families, revealing how they paralleled each other in Louisiana history and often intersected on social, military, economic, and political levels. Daggett also analyzes the struggles of the free people of color in both colonial Louisiana and early America and explores the ways slavery, manumission, and inheritance laws connected the two families. Above all, her work recovers the unique story of Eugene Macarty and Eulalie Mandeville, which has languished in the shadows of historical obscurity for generations.

How migrants imagined a country through their acts of returnWhat does it mean to go back home, especially when "home" is shaped by conquest, labor, and longing? This question has animated the experiences of global migrants displaced by imperialism, capital, and the nation-states that have sought to manage their movements for their own political and economic benefit. Through vivid storytelling, Adrian De Leon traces how Filipinos, both at home and overseas, have both shaped the societies they've settled in and transformed the very idea of the Philippines itself. By following the emergence of the Filipino return migrant (balikbayan), De Leon explores how statecraft in the Philippines-from the late Spanish period through the post-1946 independent state-attempted to co-opt value from migrant communities. Balikbayan shows how diasporic labor and transpacific political imaginations were central to the development of a modern Philippine nation-state, through enabling the continued conquest of the islands' frontiers, and sustaining the economic recovery of a nation indebted by native elites and overseas empires. In turn, these lands were reframed by the state as the birthright of overseas Filipinos who yearned to connect with their roots. Compiled through deep and thoughtful research in community archives, the itinerant histories brought to life in Balikbayan coalesce around a new cultural-economic form that has come to define contemporary nationhood: the homeland.

Illuminates how family-student interactions enhance the educational achievement of students of color/first-generation academics and applies these lessons to institutional goals.Shaping Students of Color from Preschool to Graduate School argues that family socialization and parent involvement in education influence paths to graduate school. Based on personal interviews with over thirty graduate students of color and first-generation graduate students, the text shows that families and parents use a complex system where cultural knowledge and behavioral modeling socialize children over the life course to promote specific values, including prioritizing education and hard work; building family unity and spirituality; honoring familial and ancestral sacrifices; fostering individual agency and personal autonomy at a young age; resisting gendered and racialized norms; and managing relationships in both personal and professional settings. These stories lay the groundwork for developing an asset-based understanding of what graduate students of color and first-generation graduate students bring to campus. Institutionally, what we learn can continue to build on the unique experiences and strengths of graduate students and enhance connections between personal and familial backgrounds and inclusive educational programming.

Since the late nineteenth century, various agencies of the U.S. government have attempted to manage "suspect" immigrants, colonial subjects, and activists of Asian descent through bureaucratic procedures involving extensive paperwork and live examinations. These procedures have given institutional authority and form to suspicion but rarely alleviated or contained it: while insisting that there is something to uncover, they have offered less the satisfaction of suspicion than its expansion. Ju Yon Kim explores the modes of engagement and contestation available to those who are subjected by the state to relentless documentation and demands to perform - whether as lawful immigrants, obedient colonial subjects, or loyal Americans. Paper documentation has been critical to authorizing exclusion, surveillance, and incarceration by the state, yet it has also enabled performances with paper that have facilitated transnational passage, mobilized resistance to administration, and troubled the logic of racial and national classifications. Closely examining a range of documents, including immigration interview transcripts, colonial surveillance forms, loyalty questionnaires, and informant reports, Kim argues for a dramaturgical approach to interacting with these archives, one that recognizes suspicion's tendency to render certain bodies theatrical while also countering its inexorable pursuit of evidence. Linking histories of Chinese immigration exclusion, the U.S. colonization of the Philippines, the internment of Japanese Americans, and FBI surveillance of political groups, Kim brings together studies of paperwork and performance to demonstrate their continued, intertwined impact on Asian American history and culture.

This ethnographic study examines the experiences of seven Asian American high school students across three test preparation centers (hagwons) in the New York / New Jersey area. This study found that hagwon was a site of convergence for Eastern values, rugged American individualism, and the rise of data-creating for students a distinct and inescapable imperative centered on achievement. This "habitus of hagwon" informed behavioral, curricular, even environmental decisions for students and hagwons. Ultimately, hagwon was part of an essential cultural inscription and calculation: to optimize students' odds for desired outcomes at every level of college admissions and beyond.

In a clinical landscape where traditional therapy models have historically been researched, constructed from, and designed for white heterosexual couples, this book offers an innovative framework to address the challenges, nuances, and strengths of diverse identities and relationships.Drawing from Attachment Theory, Structural Family Therapy, Narrative Therapy, and the rich history and resiliency of Black LGBTQIA+ communities from the Harlem Renaissance to contemporary Ballroom culture, Multidynamic Relational Therapy (MRT) transforms centuries of wisdom and resilience into a practical five-step framework. This model specifically addresses issues of rigidity, power dynamics, and attunement in loving relationships while helping client systems break free from society's limiting scripts about love and connection. Through compelling clinical examples, Dr. Pennant demonstrates how this framework helps individuals navigate intimate relationships and generational trauma, moving beyond merely solving problems to achieve "Radical Emancipation"- the complete rewriting of relationship rules to create partnerships that are authentically their own.This pioneering book provides clinicians with a versatile framework applicable to individuals, couples, families, and various relational constellations. It is an essential resource for therapists, counselors, and mental health professionals committed to culturally responsive practice and helping clients develop relationship patterns that honor their full humanity and unique relational needs.

A groundbreaking exploration of race, gender, and sexualityIn the wake of the US wars in Southeast Asia, the arrival of Hmong refugees reignited American anxieties about race and sexuality. Sensationalized media portrayals of child marriages, bride kidnappings, and polygamy framed Hmong communities as sexually deviant, reinforcing a racialized perception of their cultural practices. In Queering the Hmong Diaspora, Kong Pheng Pha dismantles these narratives, revealing how legal cases, media representations, and legislative efforts have constructed Hmong Americans as hyperheterosexual and ungovernable subjects.Critically examining how Hmong Americans are positioned within racial, gendered, and sexual discourses of liberalism, Pha explores the lived experiences of queer Hmong Americans, whose existence and activism challenge mainstream and ethnonationalist constructions of subjectivity. Addressing Hmong American gender and sexual politics through feminist, queer, and social justice lenses, Pha offers a critical framework for understanding how race and sexuality intersect in shaping the lives of minoritized refugee communities in the United States and beyond.
