Summary:

Migration, Equality and Racisms trigger ever more salient societal debates. More than 80 VUB academics and co-authors joined forces. 0Philosophers, lawyers, psychologists, health scientists, sociologists, geographers, criminologists, communication and political scientists ... Together they aim to contribute to an exercise of humanism as a praxis of criticism or a technique of trouble-making, in the words of Edward Said. Through 44 thought-provoking and informed opinion pieces, they question common sense ideas on migration, equality and racisms and propose solutions that might disturb. 0Let this book be a source of inspiration for those who want to spark an informed debate on the ever more salient issues of migration, equality and racisms, for those who want to learn more on how and why humanism has often remained an empty box for migrants and racialised groups. Or for those who search inspiration for a just future for all.
