The paper attempts to identify the features of the spread of racist views and sentiments in Ireland in the late 20 and early 21 centuries. The author draws attention to the specifics of migration flows in the country, which for a long time was a region of active emigration, which led to a not very active spread of racism until recently, with the exception of the policy towards Irish travellers. Based on statistics, materials from Irish media and blogs, as well as materials from anti-racist organizations, various mechanisms of racialization of migrants in modern Ireland are demonstrated. The author concludes that there was a significant role of the state in affirming whiteness as an important part of Irish identity and, at the same time, that the racist views are marginal in modern Irish agenda
