Building the Anti-Racist University
In the new arena for anti-racist work in which we find ourselves, the neo-liberal, ‘post-race’ university, this interdisciplinary collection demonstrates common global political concerns about racism in Higher Education. It highlights a range of issues regarding students, academic staff and knowledge systems, and all of the contributions seek to challenge the complacency of the ‘post-race’ present that is dominant in North-West Europe and North A…

Foucault, social movements and heterotopic horizons
In this article, we explore and develop the utility for social movement studies of Michel Foucault’s conceptualization of heterotopia. Informed by Foucault’s theorizing, we propose a heuristic typology of social movement heterotopias. Five heterotopia ‘types’ are considered: ‘contained’, ‘mobile’, ‘cloud’, ‘encounter’ and ‘rhizomic’. Each has particular attributes, but all challenge normal, routine politics. They do so by being, from the perspect…

Building the anti-racist university
volume.The 2013 conference 'Building the Anti-racist University: Next Steps' was focused on looking forward to what needed to be done now in the 21 st century drawing on 20 th /21 st century experience of institutional gains followed by their attrition in some cases and fundamental institutional inertia in others.Both of these responses to addressing institutional racism worked against organizational change even as equality and diversity policies…
Negotiating Mobility
Using qualitative and quantitative data, this article explains how South Asian women's attendance at university in Britain went from being exceptional in the 1970s to routine in the present century. Focusing upon the reflexivity of young South Asian women around issues of education, subject choice, marriage and careers in relation to their parents and their communities offers a better understanding than currently dominant social capital explanati…
Reflexive Ethnicities
This paper presents an analysis of how people reflexively relate to their ethnicity in the context of cultural and political crisis after the 7/7 bombings in London in 2005. Introducing a differentiated conception of reflexivity following Archer and Lash, the paper shows how cognitive, hermeneutic and aesthetic reflexivity (Lash) are expressed autonomously, communicatively and in a meta-reflexive manner (Archer) variably across and within ethnici…
Interculturalism
Shortly before being asked to review this book I was giving a lecture on community cohesion to around 100 British undergraduates, who, given the institution, were almost entirely from white middle
Xenophobia and Islamophobia in Europe
This is a comparative analysis of racism and Islamophobia in Europe with a particular emphasis on France and Germany to which whole chapters are devoted. Importantly the book seems to work with a c
Industrial citizenship
Purpose The purpose of this paper is to critically examine and reformulate T.H. Marshall's concept of industrial citizenship, and apply the reformulated model to a case study of the UK. Design/methodology/approach Marshall's conceptualisation of industrial citizenship is criticised for neglecting the rights of unions as collective rights and for treating industrial citizenship as an aggregation of individual rights. Subsequent attempts to use the…
Funny Looks
This article examines the experiences of British Pakistanis living in West Yorkshire after the 7 July bombings in London in 2005. Based on qualitative interviews conducted in the Beeston and Hyde Park areas of Leeds and the nearby town of Dewsbury in 2006, the article considers a number of important themes that have emerged since the bombings, including: locality and segregation, views about the London bombers, experiences of racism and Islamopho…
Securitized Citizens
The London bombings of 7 July 2005 were a major event shaping the relationship between Muslims and non-Muslims in Britain. In this paper we introduce the idea of 'securitized citizens' to analyse the changing relationship between British Muslims and wider British society in response to this and similar events. Through an analysis of qualitative interviews with Muslims and non-Muslims of a variety of ethnic backgrounds in the areas where the Londo…
The Limits of Protest Event Data and Repertoires for the Analysis of Contemporary Feminism
Protest event analysis (PEA) and the related concept of repertoire of contention are widely used in the study of social movements. Are they appropriate for the study of feminist protest? I argue that conventional forms of protest event analysis may have significant limitations when applied to feminist protest. Unobtrusive or individualized forms of resistance and protest associated with feminism are difficult to measure through typical protest ev…
Riotous Citizens
In 2001, Britain saw another summer of rioting in its cities, with violent uprisings in Oldham, Burnley and Bradford. With a particular focus on the Bradford riot of July 2001, this book explores the reasons for those riots and why they mark a new departure in Britain's racial politics
Citizenship, Ethnicity and Identity
There have been few studies of citizenship as an identity. This article explores citizenship as an identity among British Pakistanis in Bradford after the 'riot' in 2001, using qualitative data. The 2001 'riots', the political successes of the British National Party and the events after September 11 pushed British-Pakistani Muslims into the forefront of national political conflicts around citizenship, national identity and allegiance to the state…

Reflexivity Contra Structuration
This paper argues that Giddens recent writings on reflexivity and modernity fundamentally contradict the underlying paradigm of agency and structure -- the duality of structure -- that he has developed since the 1970s. Whilst many critics of Giddens' writings on reflexivity have focused on his relative neglect of power, they have overlooked the emerging contradictions with his overall analysis of agency and structuration that I argue lie at the r…
Contemporary British Feminism
This paper addresses the issue of social movement abeyance in relation to contemporary British feminism. It argues that currently British feminism is a social movement in abeyance that is not actively confronting the social system, and is largely preoccupied with maintaining itself through service providing voluntary organizations, educational and intellectual activities and incorporation into elite politics. The analysis of abeyance is also deve…

Relating Intimacies
This set of phrases serves less as a definition of the meaning of intimacy than as a start-point of enquiry into this topic. Does the closeness mentioned above refer to spatial proximity, affectiveness or kinship ties? Does the presence of one form of closeness automatically result in another of the forms? What rights and responsibilities are associated with different forms of closeness?
Transforming Politics
Politics transform and can be transformed; transforming politics is the theme that runs through the contributions to this collection. Twenty-five years ago a book such as this might have been preoccupied with questions such as neo-marxist state theory, general theories of power, and analyses of political behaviour restricted to voting patterns. Much of this would probably have been preoccupied with class-based power and resistance. While question…

Protest, Poverty and Power
In 1989-90 a regressive local tax, the Community Charge or poll tax as it became known, was introduced by the Conservative government. Its implementation was met by widespread sometimes violent protest, and a systematic campaign of non-payment. In response the tax Was replaced by the more progressive Council Tax. This paper considers the nature of the anti-poll tax protest. Its social base, forms of organisation and tactics are considered in rela…
Idle Thieving Bastards? Scholarly Representations of the 'Underclass
alienated underclass who take out their resentment in crime and vandalism. You can't really blame them.' 'You'd blame them if you were mugged going home tonight,' said Vic. (Lodge 1988: 241) It is rare for sociological terms to enter journalism, popular fiction and political debate, but the 'underclass' succeeds where others fail. Terms and concepts such as 'marginalized strata', 'excluded groups', 'reserve army of labour', 'the pauper class', 't…

The authors of this volume discuss the ways in which places have been transformed by the changes happening within them - shifts in the nature and quantity of paid and unpaid work, in social and political mobilization, in cultural and aesthetic experience and in the built environment.
Sex Segregation in Local Labour Markets
The paper addresses the question of whether sex segregation in the labour market, one of the most significant causes in gender inequality in paid work, has changed recently. The paper starts by suggesting new ways of distinguishing between the horizontal and vertical components of segregation, by separating industrial from hierarchical segregation. Further, while most previous analysis has been at either a national level or at the level of specif…
Social Change, the Middle Class and the Emergence of 'New Social Movements
Most recent analyses of New Social Movements (NSMs) by British sociologists have concentrated on broad social changes or the middle classes as the key explanatory factors. This paper criticizes recent contributions to the analysis of NSMs which emphasize the development of 'post-Fordism' and 'disorganized capitalism', and recent attempts to understand NSMs as a reflection of 'middle class' interests or values. An alternative theoretical approach …

Gender Restructuring; Five Labour-Markets Compared
Restructuring theory, which has made some radical changes to the understanding of the relations between the social and the spatial, has had relatively little to say about the restructuring of gender relations across time and space. In this paper restructuring theory is built on, applying it to the analysis of the changing gender composition and structuring of the work force. First, the implicit assumptions about gender in existing theory are exam…

Protest, Acquiescence and the Unemployed
The political quiescence of the unemployed has provided much sustenance for social commentators. If the historical record is examined, however, quiescence is not necessarily the only response to unemployment. Widespread protests were organized by the National Unemployed Workers' Movement during the inter-war period. A comparison of the Trades Union Congress' Centres for the Unemployed of the 1980s with the NUWM reveals that changes in the forms o…

The Patriarchal Restructuring of Gender Segregation
This paper considers recent debates around patriarchy and gender segregation in paid employment. I argue that there are significant problems concerning a lack of attention to the forms of mobilization of patriarchal forces. Most analyses using the concept of patriarchy to explain gender segregation have used those empirical examples where men are organized in trade unions or professional associations. They have no way of explaining segregation in…
Judges, the Media, and Rape
The judiciary is the focus of quite unprecedented attention by the media. The controversy about legal reforms as well as human peccadilloes have made judges much more visible in the public domain.1 Comments by judges in criminal cases nowadays may produce banner headlines.2 However, media coverage of sexual attacks in which male judges have made sexist or discriminatory remarks have a much longer history. For nearly two decades feminist-led conce…
