Racism, mortification and carcerality
This paper argues to understand racially minoritised people's experiences of mental illness and mental healthcare, we must expand the focus from inpatient stays to understanding a series of interactions with state institutions. We extend Goffman's concept of mortification beyond the inpatient unit to demonstrate how carceral practices are routinely used by state institutions, contributing to the worsening of racially minoritised people's mental h…
The Green Areas Are Out of Our Reach
Commitments to Build Back Greener remain prominent in international approaches to post-pandemic economic recovery. Yet, few studies have considered how the associated processes of valuing, preserving and erasing green spaces in urban greening redevelopment projects are inflected by racialised inequalities. Drawing on 29 interviews with policy practitioners and racially minoritised residents in Oldham (North-West England), this article contests di…
Housing governance and racialisation
In March 2022, the UK government refined its approach to tackling systemic inequalities with a seemingly innocuous refrain: ‘inclusivity’. The instilling of shared values and economic development were discursively framed in central government rhetoric as the solutions to existing disparities and processes that were linked to places deemed as deprived. Drawing on data from forty-seven interviews with policy practitioners, anti-racist networks, and…
The practice of participatory action research
Mental health service users in the UK have become increasingly involved in research over the last 2 decades partly as a consequence of research governance. Ethnic minority service users, however, point to power imbalances stemming from marginalisation and discrimination creating barriers to knowledge co-production (Kalathil, J. (2013). Hard to reach? Racialised groups and mental health service user involvement.). Heavily influenced by Freire's li…
Where next for understanding race/ethnic inequalities in severe mental illness? Structural, interpersonal and institutional racism
In this article we use the example of race/ethnic inequalities in severe mental illness to demonstrate the utility of a novel integrative approach to theorising the role of racism in generating inequality. Ethnic minority people in the UK are at much greater risk than White British people of being diagnosed with a severe - psychosis related - mental illness, and this is particularly the case for those with Black Caribbean or Black African origins…
The rise and fall of the 'inner city
In postwar England, the 'inner city' has loomed large in urban discourse and policy, serving as an important site through which 'race' has been rendered socially and spatially meaningful. Drawing on insights from history, geography and sociology, this paper traces the material and symbolic processes through which the 'inner city' has been the subject and object of socio-political knowledge and action. The article examines what shifting understand…
Diversity in place
This paper explores the implications of representations of places as 'diverse', particularly for those who live in them. Arising from an interdisciplinary research project, the paper takes one neighbourhood in Manchester (Cheetham Hill) and explores some of the narratives about it produced by residents and those who have a 'professional' stake in the area. These are put in the context of public narratives of the area, as well as Census data. The …
The roles of social housing providers in creating 'integrated' communities
This work was supported by the Economic and Social Research Council grant number ES/K002198/1: Understanding changes in ethnic relations: the dynamics of ethnicity, identity and inequality in the UK
Revitalizing the neighborhood
In recent years, growing academic attention has been placed upon the varied strategies of rightsizing employed by cities to address the interrelated dynamics of economic and urban decline and depopulation. Within this body of work, the focus has primarily been placed on the city-level. By focusing on the practices and politics of urban revitalization within the Idora neighborhood in Youngstown – a neighborhood widely heralded as a success story –…
The ‘New’ Sociology of Deindustrialisation? Understanding Industrial Change
This article reviews a range of new and established writing on deindustrialisation. It traces the origins of the concept from its popularisation in the early 1980s with the onset of large scale loss in the industrial regions of North America and Europe. We argue that with the passage of time, the academic field of deindustrialisation has matured as the scale and consequences of industrial loss become more apparent. We suggest here that sociology …
The State of Race
This book analyses the nature of the contemporary racial state, exploring issues such as the nature of postraciality, racial neoliberalism, the state of multiculturalism and whiteness, alongside the f
Shrinking ‘Smart’
This article analyzes the impact of the much-heralded Youngstown 2010 Plan and the enacting of a program of “controlled” or “managed” shrinkage. It is argued that while the program of redevelopment has had an impact on Youngstown and its national image, it represents an exclusionary project that has centered on redeveloping downtown areas and neglected many city neighborhoods which continue to experience high levels of unemployment, vacancy, and …
Introduction to Crumbling Cultures
In this introductory essay we review key themes in the scholarly literature on deindustrialization over the last twenty-five to thirty years. While the term deindustrialization has been in use since the early 1980s, more careful attention needs to be brought to bear on the cultural significance of industrial change over time, including on how individuals and communities reinterpret deindustrialization through the lens of memory. This essay highli…
Youngstown's ‘Ghost’? Memory, Identity, and Deindustrialization
This article considers the highly contested and contradictory uses of the industrial past that continue to animate questions of place-based identity in the wake of large-scale deindustrialization. Drawing on media accounts as well as qualitative interviews with city residents, the representations surrounding Youngstown, Ohio's former middleweight boxing champion, Kelly Pavlik, and his asserted relationships to the city are considered. It is argue…
Apostolic Fathers
The “Apostolic Fathers” is an umbrella term that refers to a now traditional collection of some of the earliest proto‐orthodox Christian texts outside of the New Testament. These texts may be distinguished from the writings of the Church Fathers by their relative antiquity, and from other collections of early Christian literature by their perceived importance to the emerging orthodox church.
Barnabas, Epistle of
The Epistle of Barnabas is a Christian text from the late first or early second century ce , one of the earliest and most important examples of Christian Adversus Iudaeos literature. Falsely attributed in Antiquity to Barnabas, the traveling companion of the Apostle Paul, the epistle lingered on the margins of the New Testament canon until the fourth or fifth century.
The 'trouble' with the 'white working class
Over the course of the last two decades, ‘whiteness’ has exploded as an area of academic inquiry bringing together scholars from an array of academic disciplines and generating significant new insights that have contributed to a more complex understanding of a racialised positioning often taken for granted as a normative, unmarked, even invisible system of privilege. Within this field, the ‘white working class’ has come to assume an integral posi…
Stigmatization, space, and boundaries in de-industrial Burnley
n For Loic Wacquant (2007; 2008), de-industrialization and the rise of post-Fordism, the weakening of the welfare state, and intensified economic polarization, mark the development of a new age of `advanced marginality?. He argues that we have witnessed the intensification of `territorial stigmatization?, as specific neighbourhoods within cities face both heightened material and symbolic degradation. Drawing on qualitative interviews with white r…
Fighting for 'Respectability
In the United States and the United Kingdom, the White male boxer has long held a special appeal among the public and media. Boxing 'heroes' are constructed not only on the basis of Whiteness but also on the basis of their perceived 'working-class' nature, at a time when 'working-class' or 'blue-collar' identities in both the United Kingdom and the United States are subjected to forms of negative stigmatization. However, central to the appeal of …
It's Not Just Them, It's Whites as Well
The emergence of the British National Party (BNP), primarily at the local level, has led to a proliferation of political, media and academic accounts seeking to explain its rise. These accounts have focused on a homogeneous, fixed construction of 'the white working class'. This article, written during early 2010, seeks to challenge these assumptions by offering a more nuanced account of the nature of BNP support. It will be suggested that the dat…
Managing the Parameters of Visibility
Hurricane Katrina exposed the immobility of the Black poor, revealing the dual logics of concealment and containment on which public space throughout US cities is increasingly built. However, the force of the hurricane eroded the distinction between the private ‘ghetto’ and the public arena. The response of government and the media was guided by an interpretive framework in which poor urban Blacks are marked by their ‘criminality’. It was through…
White Backlash, ‘Unfairness’ and Justifications of British National Party (BNP) Support
In 2005, Roger Hewitt published White Backlash and the Politics of Multiculturalism . Using qualitative research conducted in Greenwich, London and via an engagement with political and media discourses, he traced the emergence of a new theme within white racism. This article will outline the origins and development of ‘white backlash’, from Conservative MP Enoch Powell’s infamous ‘Rivers of Blood’ speech in 1968 through Thatcherism, and examine t…
The political breakthrough of the BNP
The Banal National Party
Since the turn of the twenty-first century, the far right in Britain, under the auspices of the British National Party (BNP), has made noteworthy electoral gains. Under the leadership of Nick Griffin, the party has placed great emphasis on modernization. The concentration of BNP electoral gains within specific areas such as Burnley, Barking and Dagenham, Epping Forest, and Stoke-on-Trent has meant that academic enquiries into the party's activiti…
Revisiting the 2001 Riots
Following the Civil Rights legislation enacted in the 1960s in the United States, the notion of 'colourblind' racism has emerged within sociological literature. It has been used as a theoretical tool to explain the continuing presence of racism and racialised inequalities within a society where its significance in determining social location is increasingly disavowed. The use of the term has been restricted to those describing the politics of rac…

The Epistle of Barnabas and the Deuteronomic Tradition
The Epistle of Barnabas , an anonymous Christian writing of the late first or early second century C.E., makes a provocative claim: because of its worship of the golden-calf, Israel lost its covenant status forever at Sinai. As a result of this bold assertion, many recent scholars have concluded that Barnabas disinherits the Jews at Sinai and has no notion of »salvation history.« In this work James N. Rhodes reassesses the theology of the Epistle…
Barnabas 4.6b
Among early Christian writings the Epistle of Barnabas is remarkable for the claim that Israel lost its covenant forever at Sinai because of its worship of the golden calf. What is less clear is whether Barnabas's interest in this event is driven primarily by polemical, paraenetic, or abstract theological concerns. Contributing to this uncertainty is a notorious text-critical problem at Barn. 4.6b where the author first raises the issue of Israel…
