Böcker av Harry Goulbourne

Race Relations in Britain since 1945 provides a critical overview of the origins, development and present state of race relations in Britain. Highly contentious, the field of race relations is closely related to a number of issues which are regarded to be at the very heart of contemporary British life. Professor Goulbourne draws on a variety of historical, sociological, anthropological and political analyses to construct and advance a convincing and persuasive argument about differential incorporation into British society or inequality based on colour in the imperial and colonial era as well as the contemporary period.

A study of the creolisation process which has shaped the Caribbean

Harry Goulbourne's theme is how post-imperial Britain has come to define the national community in terms of ethnic affinity, instead of a traditional multi-ethnic/multi-racial understanding of the nation.

Provides an overview of the emergence of different understandings of ethnicities, identities and family forms across a number of ethnic groups, family types, and national boundaries. This book is of interest to students and scholars of migration, transnationalism, families and globalisation.
