Status Eligibilities
This study of refugee resettlement contributes a novel conceptual framework to the sociology of forced migration. Drawing on interviews with Syrian refugees in their first year of resettlement in Ontario, Canada, we demonstrate how successful sponsorship counters the “non-person” status associated with refugee recognition. During displacement, refugees mobilize their pre-conflict roles to secure self-rescue against forces of conflict. During rese…
Introduction
Introduction: The Racialized Refugee Regime
(Mis)trusted Contact
Drawing on interviews with 204 participants in two studies of privately sponsored refugee resettlement in Ontario, Canada, we explore the resettlement effects of pre-arrival contact on the interactional dynamics between private sponsors and privately sponsored Syrian refugees. Those who had regular pre-arrival contact via digital applications such as Facebook, Skype, and Whatsapp reported more positive, “successful” resettlement experiences than …

Beyond Refuge
Drawing on empirical data from a recent study of the resettlement practices, challenges and concerns of privately sponsored refugees and sponsor groups in Ontario, Canada, we examine how Orientalist scripts of refuge frame "the Syrian refugee crisis" but are interactively challenged and reconfigured in the sponsor-sponsored relationship. Key to this contestation are the pre-conflict practical identities through which "refugees" assert their autho…
Words don’t come easy
Al Jazeera’s August 2015 editorial decision to substitute ‘refugee’ for ‘economic migrant’ in its coverage of ‘the Mediterranean Migration Crisis’ provides an opportunity to re-frame the relationship between the politics of race, immigration and media representations of refugees. Situating the broadcaster’s publicly announced rationale for the decision within a critique of the migrant–refugee dichotomy enforced by European public policy, this art…
Class and Race
This entry discusses a political and theoretical conceptualization derived from twentieth‐century Marxist and black radical responses to the complicity of labor movement in the tenets and legacies of the European and North American trade in African slave labor, imperialism, and nineteenth‐century scientific racism. Black radicals have attempted to retain a transformative critique of capitalism while questioning the “white left” centering of an in…
Redressing racism, communicating citizenship
Apolitical social marketing communications, however intendedly neutral, acquire political capabilities when metropolitan states in search of legitimacy use them to market multiculturalism. European metropoles are under pressure to reconcile their colonial histories with the contemporary need to engage minority ethnic citizens. Yet, in the communication of cultural belonging, antiracist state redress must also enlist the consent of majority ethnic…
Other Than Mexicans”, “Islamic Fascists” and the transatlantic regulation of risky subjects
Post-9/11 significations of “immigration threat” link the policing of the US–Mexico border to the “war on terror” geopolitically such that domestic policies and practices related to the regulation of “undocumented” Latino migrants shape and are shaped by extra-domestic considerations related to the signification of Arab and Muslim communities. In broadening migration analysis, to include a geopolitical dimension, we are able to draw out the chang…

Race Defaced
This book compares different forms of racism and anti-racism in the United States and Britain from the 19th century to today, situating the development of various racial doctrines within the political movements of the modern capitalist world order.
The Allure of Race
This article examines conceptual obstacles to emancipation which have emerged historically within Left theory on both sides of the Atlantic, concerned primarily with “class versus race” debates spanning from the post-war Hegelian moment to the post-structural present. While the “cultural turn” promised to give voice against structuralist silencing, the critical subject of emancipation has been defaced, eradicated such that we currently have no th…
Racism, Muslims and the National Imagination
This qualitative study investigates the relationship between racism and nationalism in two multi-ethnic British neighbourhoods, focusing specifically on the construction of ‘the Muslim’ as a racialised role sign. Through in-depth interviews with 102 ‘white’ and ‘non-white’ participants in Glasgow (Scotland) and Bristol (England) we investigate the extent to which ‘the Muslim’ is being demonised as an oppositional identity in the construction of E…
Third Way anti-racism
Recent debate surrounding racism and immigration in the UK reveals that anti-racist policy is being constructed within a 'Third Way' political agenda such that the definition of racism comes to signify a phenomenon considered detrimental to the 'building of community'. Given the controversial role of the British state in perpetuating the 'immigration/ race-relations problematic', this paper argues that New Labour's approach to racism comes to emb…
Codes of Cultural Belonging
This qualitative study investigates the relationship between race and nation in an ethnically mixed neighbourhood in Glasgow, Scotland. It finds that Scottishness has a historically founded racialised referent at the level of the neighbourhood but that this referent is undermined in everyday life by syncretic codes of cultural belonging represented by signifiers such as accent, dress and mannerisms. However, these cultural signifiers that contest…
Migrant labour, racism and the British National Health Service
This study explores the dynamics of racism, specifically its generation and reproduction as an ideology, and its role in affecting the reception and occupational location of migrant medical labour in Britain. It is argued that the treatment of 'overseas doctors' in Britain draws on a complex interplay between racism and nationalism underpinned by the historical construction of 'welfarism' as a moral legitimator of 'Britishness'. Through an explor…
