Summary:

"The lived experience of racism, for individuals and groups, involves the cumulative and connected impacts of racism operating from systemic and structural to overt and interpersonal levels across all social spheres. The legacies of historical racism, as well as the interplay of factors such as gender and class, add further complexity and nuance to these experiences. This edited work explores the layered and multidimensional nature of racism through its structure of eleven linked sections, each of which showcases primary research into racism in a particular sphere. Edited by a team of renowned and innovative scholars, the work provides a holistic and interconnected view of racism. It explores racism in a wide range of social domains, including, but not limited to, politics and government; labour and the economy; education and academia; art and culture; and police and criminal justice. The diverse academic traditions of the editors and contributors make this a truly interdisciplinary work, bringing together knowledge and research approaches from across disciplines to examine social, political, economic, historical, and psychological aspects of racism. Included within are scholarly research contributions that explore racism occurring within different social contexts, at national and international levels; its scale and impacts; and approaches to counteract it. Although the primary focus is on the Global North, racisms operating in all parts of the world, whether legacies of European colonialism or not, are included"-- Oxford Academic.
