Racisms in the New World Order: realities of cultures, colours and identity (original) (raw)

Floya Anthias is Professor of Sociology at Oxford Brookes University in the United Kingdom. Her political and research concerns span the different dimensions of inequality and disempowerment. She has published extensively on social divisions, racism, ethnicity, migration and gender as well as Cypriots in Britain. Her work has included an analysis of social divisions and in particular the links between gender, ethnicity and class, rethinking the link between "ethnic" and "race" categories, critiquing the use of "culture" and "community" in multiculturalist discourse and practice, stressing the centrality for gender for social relations with a particular interest in the links between gender and ethnic, "race" and national processes, and contributing to recent debates on feminism and multiculturalism and on transnationalism, diaspora and hybridity.
