Ethnic Minority Sole Traders' Experiences of Racial Discrimination
The problem of racism has afflicted British society for some time though it has been more transparent since the large-scale influx of immigrants during the 1960s (Cashmore 1996, pp. 40-43). These immigrants and their succeeding generations have suffered discrimination in various walks of life as highlighted by Baxter (1997), Modood et al. (1998a) and Ishaq and Hussain (2001). The passage of legislation such as the Race Relations Act 1976 and more…
Minority Ethnic Enterprise in Scotland
This paper constitutes the first systematic national study on Minority Ethnic Businesses (MEBs) in Scotland. The study used a combination of research methods including secondary data from the 2001 Census, data on self-employment rates, quantitative analysis of the baseline dataset, 41 in-depth qualitative interviews and a further 32 interviews with key informants. The in-depth interviews revealed great contrasts between the experience of MEB-owne…
Ethnic minority women and the British armed forces
The issue of women serving in the British Armed Forces is both a topical and a politically sensitive subject, particularly with regard to the question of whether they should be allowed to perform combat roles. Indeed the issue has increased in salience in the last few years in view of the strong emphasis the Blair government has placed on diversity issues, particularly those of racial diversity. This policy shift has been reinforced by the Minist…

Scottish Pakistani Muslims' Perceptions of the Armed Forces
British Pakistani Muslims' Perceptions of the Armed Forces
This paper focuses on how Muslims (of Pakistani origin) living in Britain perceive the British Armed Services as a career. The analysis draws on a survey of 300 individuals, who were interviewed personally, in three languages: English, Punjabi and Urdu, using semi-structured, open ended, in-depth interviews. The survey results reveled that the Muslims' interviewed are aware of the negative aspects of the forces such as racism and are largely unaw…
Race and Recruitment from a Uniformed Services' Perspective
In recent times there has been much debate about the publicity surrounding the low level of ethnic minority representation in the uniformed services. Indeed, the issue has become so important that increasing ethnic minority representation across the public services had become an important government policy objective under the direction of the former Home Secretary, Jack Straw. In response to this, representatives from a number of the uniformed se…
Foreign direct investment in Ukraine since transition
Since independence Ukraine has attracted very little foreign direct investment, both in absolute terms, and relative to other transition economies. This is the case when we analyse the ratio of FDI to GDP and exports, and the amount of FDI per capita. This paper examines the causes of the low level of FDI, and offers some policy prescriptions which may help to reverse this unfavourable trend
