No problem here : understanding racism in Scotland
2018
Books, Manuscripts
Does Scotland have a problem with racism? With its 'civic nationalism' and 'welcoming' attitude towards migrants and refugees, Scotland is understood to be relatively free of structural and institutional racism. As the contributors to this book show, such generalisations fail to withstand serious investigation. Their research into the historical record and contemporary reality tells a very different story. Opening up debate on a subject that has been shut down for too long, 'No Problem Here' gathers together the views of academics, activists, and anti-racism campaigners who argue that it is vital that the issue of racism be brought into the centre of public discourse.
