Description
Kalwant Bhopal examines the persistence of racial inequality in a post-racial society, exploring how neoliberal policy making has increased discrimination faced by those from non-white backgrounds.
She argues that certain types of whiteness are not privileged, highlighting the marginalisation of groups such as Gypsies and Travellers, who remain disadvantaged in society.
This important book draws on topical debates and empirical data to examine the impact of race on wider issues of inequality and difference in society.
