This article explores the history and growth of the journal Ethnic and Racial Studies over the last fifty years. In celebrating its 50th anniversary, it highlights how the field of racial and ethnic studies has broadened and progressed, emphasising the journal's role in supporting and influencing this development. We review important milestones, key debate topics, the globalisation of research in this area, and notable shifts in research scope. The discussion also considers potential future directions for the field and possible challenges the journal may face moving forward.
