At the Edges of the Jewish World: Varieties of Experience explores the diverse histories, identities, and experiences of Jewish communities situated beyond the conventional boundaries of the Jewish world.

Bringing together contributions from an international group of scholars, this edited volume examines Jewish communities across Africa, Asia, and the Americas whose histories and identities challenge traditional definitions of Jewishness. Through a series of interdisciplinary case studies, the book explores themes including identity, law, history, genetics, colonialism, slavery, race, and multicultural hybridity, offering fresh perspectives on the diversity of the Jewish experience. Published in honor of the pioneering scholar Tudor Parfitt, the volume builds upon his influential work while highlighting the lasting impact of his scholarship across Jewish studies, history, anthropology, and related fields.

This book will appeal to students and scholars of Jewish studies, Middle East studies, history, anthropology, religious studies, and diaspora studies, as well as readers interested in questions of identity, migration, race, and the global diversity of Jewish communities.

How do we understand secularisation at its intersection with race? This book provides a theoretical lens for examining the racialisation of Islam within the framework of modernity/coloniality. It investigates how Islam and people who are perceived as Muslims are treated in relation to the claimed secular space of Finland, analysed within a broader European context.

Grounded in ethnographic work, it brings different disciplines into dialogue to make an analytical contribution across the sociology of religion, postcolonial thought, and critical race and citizenship studies. The book offers the framework of selective secularity to further understand the mechanism through which the racialisation of Islam operates in contemporary times. It also introduces the concept of labour of explaining as an analytical lens to unpack the epistemic dimension of the racialisation of Islam and what it does to the racialised bodies. The book initiates intersectional debates that are highly relevant to questions of citizenship in relation to race and religion, with particular attention to the Finnish case.

This book will therefore be of interest to students and scholars of sociology, critical race theory, the study of religion, postcolonial studies, and citizenship studies. It will also be a useful resource for those who engage with questions of integration and diversity, including policymakers and practitioners.

Rethinking Antiracism: Case Studies, Practices and Politics brings together case studies that explore the changing approaches to antiracism across diverse national and institutional contexts. As contemporary debates about antiracism have transformed over the past decade, this volume offers critical reflection on how we conceptualise antiracism and implement it in practice.

Drawing on research from Lebanon, Germany, Brazil, Finland, the UK, and beyond, the chapters examine antiracist strategies across multiple domains and explore detailed accounts of specific policies and practices highlighting the importance of locating policies and practices within their broader social and political orbit. Contributors analyse how highly educated migrants respond to racism, how podcast storytelling challenges dominant narratives, and how colour-blind policies perpetuate racial stratification. The volume also explores memory politics, public scholarship, and the lifecycles of antiracist activism following the 2020 Black Lives Matter protests.

This collection along with its companion volume, The Politics of Antiracism provide essential insights for understanding the complexities, contradictions, and possibilities of contemporary antiracism. The articles included in this book were previously published in a themed issue of Ethnic and Racial Studies.

Migration and social policy in a changing world bridges the generally separate fields of social policy and migration studies. This book traces social policy responses to migration from the Industrial Revolution to today’s era of globalisation and large-scale migration.

Through case studies from across the globe, the book explores key themes including rural-urban migration, social citizenship, welfare internationalism and diasporic care systems. It examines how migrants are included in or excluded from social citizenship in host societies, and how they become providers of welfare services such as health and social care.

Moving beyond a methodological nationalist focus, the book investigates migrant incorporation into welfare states through family networks, faith communities, and other informal welfare structures. It combines migrants' experiences with host societies' immigration politics, institutional perspectives and policies to present a comprehensive analysis of the migration-welfare relationship.

This volume fills a gap in academic literature and offers policymakers, practitioners and scholars a framework for understanding the interplay between migration and social policy in our changing world.

Intersectional Disability argues that disability cannot be adequately theorised without explicit attention to race, gender, pain, epistemic injustice, and structural unbelievability. While disability studies, intersectionality, and Critical Race Theory have transformed understandings of inequality, disability continues to be treated as a largely race-neutral and gender-neutral category. This book addresses that theoretical gap by advancing Intersectional Disability Theory, a new framework that reconceptualises disability as a relational and political category shaped by whiteness, gendered expectations of endurance, the medical politics of credibility, and institutional structures that normalise able-bodiedness.

Bringing Black feminist theory, Critical Race Theory, and critical disability studies into sustained dialogue, the book examines the co-construction of disability and race across healthcare, welfare, higher education, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI), and the built environment. It demonstrates how structural power shapes recognition, care, credibility, and institutional legitimacy, determining whose pain is believed, whose impairment is recognised, and who remains invisible.

Featuring chapter overviews, key concept definitions, case studies, reflective questions, discussion exercises, and annotated further reading, Intersectional Disability offers both a major theoretical contribution and an essential teaching resource for students and scholars across disability studies, Black feminist studies, Critical Race Theory, sociology, social policy, and the medical humanities.

A bold analysis that exposes the racist policing of Black music.

The emergence of UK drill music made headline news, portraying it as a criminal enterprise instead of recognising it as an art form. This new rap subgenre, however, is neither the first nor the only Black music to be targeted this way.

Policing the beats rewinds the tape to demonstrate how music has been used as an instrument for policing Black people, from the era of colonial slavery to the present day, revealing the racist legal processes that make crimes out of rhymes.

This original and readable book offers the first in-depth account of the policing of Black music in Britain, highlighting the relationship between politics, culture and criminal (in)justice and inviting music lovers, scholars and activists to tune in.

Border enclaves examines the Spanish enclave of Melilla as a prism for understanding Europe’s contemporary dislocations. Based on over a decade of ethnographic research, it explores how borders are enforced, contested and inhabited in a city suspended between Africa and Europe, colonial legacies and modern regimes. Through a polyphonic narrative following smugglers, migrants, teachers and politicians, it reveals how everyday practices and symbolic performances shape life in the enclave. Selective visibility?who is seen or erased?structures authority and exclusion.
Situating Melilla within broader processes like Spain’s colonial history and Europe’s border restructuring, the book argues that its fragmented sovereignties and external dependencies make it a paradigmatic site for grasping Europe’s precarious margins. It calls for an ethnographic lens attuned to dislocation as both lived experience and analytic tool.

This book explores Chinese diasporic literature and culture as an art of betweenness?of thresholds, border crossings, and many tongues. Spanning America, Britain, Singapore, Australia, Hong Kong, and Canada, it traces how writers of Chinese descent have shaped a distinctive literary tradition beyond China's borders.

The volume ranges across poetry, fiction, memoir, and theatre, examining diverse expressions of diasporic experience. Chapters explore diasporic ballads, Chinese-language writing from Singapore, nineteenth-century pidgin writing by Chinese miners in colonial Australia, and the work of Hong Kong women poets in Britain. The collection also analyzes contemporary Chinatown narratives, diasporic poetry, and theatrical explorations of identity and power. An interview with a prominent diasporic writer and an afterword on diaspora as translation round out the volume. Probing identity, home, and translation, the collection illuminates the shifting forms of diasporic life and the inventive voices that make Chinese diasporic writing one of world literature's generative currents. It offers fresh perspectives on how displacement, multilingualism, and cultural hybridity shape literary expression across generations and geographies.

This collection is essential reading for students, scholars and researchers in comparative literature, diaspora studies, Asian American studies, postcolonial literature, cultural studies, and world literature. It will appeal to researchers exploring transnational identity, migration narratives, multilingual poetics, and the global dimensions of contemporary literature.

The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of Journal of Postcolonial Writing.

Diverging from reductionist studies of Northeast India, this book examines Assam’s layered and intricate conflicts empirically and theoretically. It traces the genesis and evolution of ethnic and nationalistic politics in the state, exploring how these dynamics gave birth to nativist and militant movements. By analyzing structural, cultural, and historical violences in this multi-ethnic, polyphonic geography, the book connects identity politics to questions of ethnonationality, sovereignty, and armed resistance in postcolonial nation-states.

The volume scrutinizes how state responses ? particularly militarization and policies perpetuating ethnic fragmentation ? escalated rather than mitigated conflict. Through an in-depth study of Bodoland, Assam's most violent region, and the relations between three communities (Axamiy?, Bodo, and Koch), the author stresses the need to redefine 'Axamiy?', a contentious issue in the state's ethnic politics. The book proposes ethnic reconciliation through resuscitating traditional community-based practices upholding transitional justice, restoration, and mutual coexistence as pathways to breaking the durability of violence and establishing positive peace.

Part of the Transition in Northeastern India series, this revised edition more robustly engages with current conversations about structural violence, ethnicity, and decolonial feminist peace. It will prove essential to scholars and students of Peace and Conflict Studies, Sociology, Political Science, and History, as well as policy-makers and those interested in Northeast India.

Rap as Antiracist Pedagogy represents an intervention into the field of music studies, examining how the research and teaching of rap music that appears on the surface to be equity-driven often ends up reinforcing the white power structures that the music historically has sought to dismantle. Analyzing how “rap” has been treated as a racial code word and commodity both inside and outside the academy, this book argues that there is an ethical imperative for scholars of rap music to adopt an explicitly antiracist approach to teaching and research, and offers potential pathways toward achieving that end.

Since rap music emerged as a field of study in university music departments in the 1990s, an increasing number of scholars have devoted their careers to researching and teaching this uniquely American art form. But in the context of music departments that are historically white, the ways that we study rap music often reinscribe whiteness. Offering practical connections to pedagogy alongside critical analysis of the racial dynamics surrounding rap music and its assimilation in the white mainstream, this book reflects on how and why we study hip hop, and how scholars can engage with the music while working to disrupt systems of oppression. It would be ideal for scholars in music studies who teach or research rap and hip hop, graduate and advanced undergraduate students in classes on rap/hip hop or music pedagogy, and administrators in music departments and schools of music.

Black Memory Landscapes: Sites of Remembrance and Resistance offers a wide-ranging exploration of how Black communities remember and commemorate their histories. In doing so, the volume demonstrates how Black activism, critical scholarship, and local memory practices combine to identify and enact new perspectives on memory landscapes in the USA and across the globe.

From museums and memorials in commemorative landscapes to everyday lived landscapes and spaces where stories circulate, remembered Black stories express resilience, community, and hope among memory landscapes often dominated by hegemonic histories. Black Memory Landscapes: Sites of Remembrance and Resistance presents a broad array of powerful stories and interrogates how they challenge and extend traditional understandings of memory landscapes. The volume covers a wide range of topics, from legacies of slavery to the Civil Rights Movement and contemporary issues of racial justice, and features case studies based on traditional commemorative landscapes like Freedom Park in North Carolina and New York City’s African Burial Ground, as well as new locations such as the Paul Robeson House and Museum in Philadelphia. Featuring both established and emerging scholars of Black public memory from a range of disciplines, Black Memory Landscapes: Sites of Remembrance and Resistance examines how stories of Black history have emerged in commemorative landscapes, are appearing in new commemorative locations, have surfaced in other spaces of memory, and are intertwined with the African Diaspora.

The volume offers a wide-ranging analysis for those who wish to understand how memory continues to resonate among Black Americans as a form of commemoration, a means of organizing, and a source of inspiration. This volume will therefore be of interest to researchers, academics, and students with interests in memory and heritage, African American studies, and the history of the USA.

Music and antiracism in Brazil explores the contribution of Brazilian music-making to the antiracist cause between the mid-1960s and the early 2000s. Offering fresh, critical readings of the most representative compositions, performances and initiatives from the period, it comprehensively assesses how, during the 1964-85 Dictatorship and the democratic reconstruction that followed, musicians contributed to the development of an antiracist politics in their creative approaches, repertoires and interventions.

While often claiming music as evidence of the country’s mixed, racially ‘democratic’ character, the authoritarian state and its mestico nationalist ideology actively sought to deny the selfhood of Black Brazilians as autonomous agents of their own history. But as David Treece shows, the musician-activists of the antiracist movement succeeded in giving voice to an insubordinate, insurgent Black subject while transcending the fantasies of ‘race’ and nation through class-based and cosmopolitan forms of solidarity.

Emigration of scale challenges states at the European periphery at their core. The book documents these struggles along their effects for politics and policy within their economic and welfare dimensions. The politics of emigration describe changing voter attitudes and behaviour pointing towards more support for nationalist and right-wing parties. The policies of emigration show state and local level efforts for the return of emigrant citizens. The welfare and economic dimensions explore the context for emigration and its effects for growth models and systems of health and care within the European single market. The book observes two types of state transformations: the re-emergent nation-state that re-discovers its core resource, the citizenry, as well as states that functionally and socially adapt to population loss.

This landmark volume presents the varied experiences of Filipino migrants living across Europe, North America, the UAE, and the Asia-Pacific, and provides a comprehensive overview of the global Filipino diaspora, among one of the largest and most mobile migrant groups in the world.

From the early movements of Filipino laborers in imperial circuits to today's digital networks connecting migrants worldwide, the Filipino diaspora reveals how migration and mobility intersects with power, precarity, and possibility. Bringing together historical accounts, contemporary ethnographies, and emerging perspectives on migration infrastructures, digital technologies, climate migration, care networks, labour and leisure, and queer mobilities, and more, this work positions the Filipino diaspora as an unfinished project?a dynamic site for theorizing futures and producing social change in an increasingly interconnected yet unequal world.

Examining diaspora and migration as ongoing, contested processes shaped by migration systems, policies, regimes of mobility, and digital infrastructures, this seminal volume foregrounds identity-making, community-building, resistance, and futures thinking across a range of regional and global contexts, and will be an indispensable tool for students and researchers in the fields of Asian Studies, Migration, and Diaspora Studies.

This book offers new ways of conceiving religious and cultural practices, as well as Jewish identities in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries. It brings together scholars from a number of fields, transcending the frontiers of Jewish studies. The volume tackles questions about how Jewish life, identities, and religious practices have been transformed amid various changes and challenges in Finnish society, and further considers the experiences of local Jewry through an interdisciplinary prism. Covering a wide range of subjects, the book examines how the customs, practices, and identities of Jews living in Finland have evolved amid cultural, religious, and economic transformations shaped by intercultural and interreligious encounters, recent historical events, gender, migration, and other contemporary influences. It also addresses the challenges of antisemitism in its traditional and contemporary forms and examines its effect on Jewish religious lives in contemporary Finland. This book is a must for scholars looking to deepen their understanding of Nordic Jewry.

What happens when a nation founded on multicultural ideals begins to see cultural difference as a problem to be managed, rather than a value to be celebrated? This book challenges the core assumptions of Canada’s multiculturalism policy and its reliance on “reasonable accommodation.”

Instead of fostering genuine inclusion, these frameworks often reinforce the dominance of the majority culture, positioning minority groups as outsiders who must conform, adapt, or be merely tolerated.

Drawing on feminist constitutionalism, intersectionality, and critical race theory, the author exposes how these dynamics most acutely impact those at the intersections of multiple forms of marginalization ? especially Muslim women. The book powerfully critiques how feminist ideals are sometimes appropriated by populist narratives to justify Islamophobic and anti-immigration policies, all while claiming to defend liberal values.

Through incisive analysis of landmark legal cases, this book reveals how the legal system can perpetuate structural inequalities under the guise of neutrality and reasonableness. Essential reading for anyone interested in social justice, law, or Canadian society, this book invites readers to rethink what true multiculturalism means ? and what is at stake when it is reduced to a tool for managing, rather than embracing, diversity.

This book offers a powerful and intimate autoethnographic account of Black African womanhood, tracing the author's journey from Kenya to the UK to interrogate how space, place and the body are co-constituted through colonial and postcolonial histories. Drawing on Afro-diasporic feminism, African philosophy, and decolonial geography, the book positions the Black African female body as a living archive-fragmented, surveilled, and continually (re)made within patriarchal and white supremacist frameworks. Through an intimate blend of personal narrative, ancestral memory, and critical theory, it challenges dominant epistemologies that marginalise African experiences and instead advances an African-centred, pluriversal approach to knowledge production. Organised thematically, the chapters move from macro analyses of geography and identity to embodied, intimate explorations of sexuality, kinship, and belonging. Central to this intervention is a re-theorisation of the body as a site of feminist praxis, political agency, and cultural continuity. In doing so, the book critiques universalist feminist frameworks and foregrounds the specificity of Black African women's lived realities. In decolonising human geography, this book reimagines the relationship between identity, embodiment, and space. It will appeal to scholars and students in gender and sexuality studies, human geography, African and diaspora studies, and critical race and feminist theory.

Im Zweiten Weltkrieg sollten Sinti und Roma nach dem Willen der nationalsozialistischen Machthaber in Europa ausgeloescht werden. Die auch in der Forschung praesente Vorstellung, dass den Ueberlebenden dieses Voelkermords nach 1945 eine Wiedergutmachung verweigert worden sei, unterzieht Joey Rauschenberger einer gruendlichen empirischen Ueberpruefung. Er untersucht erstmals umfassend, am Beispiel Baden-Wuerttembergs, wie Sinti und Roma in der Bundesrepublik entschaedigt wurden. Dabei ergibt sich ein weitaus differenzierteres Bild als bisher. Die grosse Mehrheit der antragstellenden Sinti und Roma hat Zahlungen erhalten, die oft durchaus substanziell waren.

Rauschenberger ordnet die Verfahren in ihre administrativen Kontexte ein und entwirft eine exemplarische Mikrogeschichte der suedwestdeutschen Entschaedigungsverwaltung. Sie legt das komplexe Geflecht menschlicher Interaktion zwischen Sachbearbeitern, Antragstellenden, Rechtsanwaelten und anderen Akteuren offen, die das Entschaedigungsverfahren zur ?Kontaktzone“ machte. Alltaegliche Begegnungen, erfahrungsbedingte Erwartungen, tiefsitzende Vorurteile und spontane Handlungen beeinflussten die Praxis und Wahrnehmung von Wiedergutmachung. Dabei entstehende Enttaeuschungen ueberschatteten und konterkarierten oftmals die materiell geleistete Entschaedigung.

This book explores the disruptive dimension of care: its activist capacity to foster new forms of affective citizenship and to generate civic responsibilities that challenge established political orders. Drawing on a comparative ethnography of migrant solidarity networks in Turin and Florence, Italy, this book follows the lived experiences of volunteers, host families, activists, professionals and local communities involved in welcoming migrants. It brings to light the intimate conflicts, ethical dilemmas and emotional transformations through which care becomes a site for disruptive forms of citizenship. Far from being a simple act of assistance or social maintenance, care emerges in these contexts as a transformative practice that unsettles moral hierarchies, dismantles political boundaries and crosses affective barriers, opening up unprecedented spaces of participation, creativity and political imagination. In the context of restrictive migration policies and the growing precarity of rights, this volume rethinks care as a form of collective action, and offers an integrated reading of care, emotions and citizenship, revealing how, in the ordinary and disruptive gestures of caring solidarity with migrants, a crucial part of the democratic future is at stake.

This book examines how the relationship between borders and the movement of people within and towards the European Union (re)defines and challenges key political concepts such as sovereignty, territory, rights, and identity in the EU, particularly in a period marked by geopolitical shifts and heightened perceptions of vulnerability. Organised into thematic sections, this edited volume is structured around three main themes: Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, the reintroduction and persistence of internal border controls within the Union, and the Pact on Migration and Asylum. Drawing on diverse disciplinary perspectives, some chapters explore the EU’s unresolved tension between internal and external borders in an era increasingly shaped by inward-looking tendencies among member states. Other chapters analyse the constitution and contestation of liminal borders amid the ongoing reconfiguration of relationships between the EU’s core and its peripheries. Additional contributions investigate emerging geographies and legal spaces associated with borders, challenging the fixed cartographies that the current geopolitical moment appears to reassert, and addressing both tangible and intangible borders. The final chapters offer broader reflections on the EU’s cognitive borders and the Union’s constitutive grammar of rights, democracy, and equality as affected by reactions to the movement of people. Thanks to the wide range of perspectives it brings together, this book will be of interest to scholars in International Relations, European studies, migration studies, and border studies.

A groundbreaking portrait of Coretta Scott King, whose brilliant activism and extraordinary life has been obscured in popular memory-until now

Coretta Scott King is one of the most memorialized yet misunderstood figures in the American civil rights movement pantheon, remembered as beautiful, respectable, and endlessly supportive of her famous husband. We don't know her at all.

Scott King was a visionary activist in her own right. More of an activist than King when they met, Scott King led her husband to live his faith through social justice, fought throughout her life against the triple evils of poverty, racism, and militarism, and led the charge inside mainstream civil rights organizations for LGBTQ rights. The Kings' marriage was a political partnership that directed the course of the civil rights struggle. After Dr. King's death, her activism in support of global justice and racial-economic justice continued for decades.

Edited by the New York Times-bestselling author Jeanne Theoharis and accomplished historian Traci Parker, and featuring contributions from leading civil rights movement historians, this collective biography shows that it is high time we know the real Coretta Scott King, lifelong freedom fighter and powerful force in American history.
