The new edition of Race and Racism in Britain builds on the strengths of previous editions of this widely-used text in providing a detailed and critical analysis of race relations and forms of racism in British society today. The book begins by mapping a conceptual framework that seeks to locate the British experience within a broader context which it proceeds to apply in a systematic assessment of trends, developments and political and policy debates since the 1950s.

Reviews of previous editions: '...lucid and concise... the most thorough introduction to the politics of racism in contemporary Britain currently available.' - Michael Keith, Times Higher Education Supplement '...Solomos is particularly good at raising theoretical issues and summarising the present state of current debates. This is a well-researched addition to the growing literature on 'race' politics and will be a very useful student text.' - Zig Layton-Henry, Political Studies '...Accessible and innovative (a rare combination)...Solomos finds a way to put across the most penetrating and complex arguments without discouraging his target (student) readership...It will challenge afresh many an old hand in the 'race relations' industry.' - Susan J. Smith, Sociology
