Focusing on the growth of racism in large cities and urban areas, this volume presents the views of international scholars who work in the social sciences and statements by non-practicing academics such as journalists and policy makers. The contributions of the scientists and the non-academic specialists are grouped around common themes, highlighting existing debates and bringing together widely scattered information. The book explores the ways in which old forms of racism persist in the urban context, and how traditional exclusion systems like casteism can be likened to contemporary forms like racism directed at refugees.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTrade Review\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003ci\u003e“…a complex and fascinating book…[that] offers sophisticated analyses for readers with a specialized interest in culture, politics, and racism.”\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e  ·  Journal of Sociology and Social Wellfare\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eIntroduction:\u003c\/strong\u003e Racism in Metropolitan Areas\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eRik Pinxten and Ellen Preckler\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003ePART I: DISEMPOWERING THROUGH RACISM\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 1. \u003c\/strong\u003eHow a Dream was Shattered\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003ePatrick Janssens\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 2. \u003c\/strong\u003eExplaining Increased Racial Conflict in Post-industrial Societies: the Creation of Systemic ‘Competitive’ Youth Unemployment\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eTroy Duster\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 3. \u003c\/strong\u003eRacial Conflicts in British Cities\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eEric Seward\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 4. \u003c\/strong\u003eLimits of Tolerance and Limited Tolerance: How Tolerant are the Danes?\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003ePeter Hervik\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 5. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Politics of ‘Caste is Race’: the Impact of Urbanisation\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eDipankar Gupta\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 6. \u003c\/strong\u003ePlaying the Media: the Durban Case\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eGuy Poppe\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 7. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Relevance of the Language of Race in South Asian Conflicts\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eSumit Sarkar\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 8. \u003c\/strong\u003eThe Fremmede and the Dalit are Silent: Danish and Indian Cultural Worlds\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eDonald Robotham\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \t\u003cstrong\u003eChapter 9. \u003c\/strong\u003eApproaching Racism: Attitudes, Actions and Social Structure\u003cbr\u003e \t\u003cem\u003eRobert A.
