Racism and Ethnicity
Ian Law has written an excellent book. It provides a wide-ranging overview of ideas and concepts, illustrated with reference to some illuminating historical and contemporary examples. It is all the more accessible to students through the specification of clear learning objectives at the beginning and references at the end of each chapter, the use of photographic and other illustrations etc., and the signposting of some of the key figures in the history of the study of ethnicity and racism. An ideal textbook for undergraduate students.
John Gabriel, Professor of Sociology and Head of Department of Applied Social Sciences, London Metropolitan University
This book is a highly valuable toolbox to understand the dynamics of racism, ethnicity and migration in the globalized world. It is clearly written and organized, exhaustive and theoretically sound. A must read, not only for the British academic public but also for students across the planet.
Marco Martiniello, Research Director, FRS-FNRS, Professor of Sociology and Politics, University of Lige and Director of the Centre dtude de lEthnicit et des Migrations (CEDEM-ULg)
Racism and Ethnicity: Global Debates, Dilemmas, Directions provides a thorough and perceptive analysis of some of the most critical issues facing the world in the twenty-first century. Concise, balanced and incorporating a genuinely global perspective, Laws timely book should be compulsory reading for every student wishing to understand this complex, dynamic and vitally important subject.

Acknowledgements
Firstly, this book is dedicated to my father Geoffrey Law, who died in April 2009. If there was one thing he really taught me it was how to look after your family, and his core values of care, fairness and positivity have been fundamental in shaping my outlook on the world. Huge thanks also to my family: Jude, Seb and Alex. Their unswerving support, help, criticism and advice has been crucial to the successful completion of this project. All three spent much time reading, discussing and giving critical comments on draft chapters for which I am particularly grateful.
Secondly, I would like to thank my many colleagues for their critical engagement, and I would like to single out Bobby Sayyid for his friendship and intellectual vivacity which have been a vital ingredient in pushing my ideas forward and in my enjoying the writing process.
Thirdly, many thanks to Andrew Taylor, Catherine Morrissey and Philippa Fiszzon, my editorial team at Pearson, for their tremendous support, encouragement and advice throughout this project, together with the many readers who provided valuable comment from start to finish.
Fourthly, the primary research on which this book draws received funding from a variety of sources, for which I am grateful; these include the European Union FP7 programme, the European Monitoring Centre for Racism and Xenophobia, the Commission for Racial Equality and Leeds City Council.
Fifthly, thanks to all those many ordinary people, particularly from racialised groups, who gave their time and input to the various research projects drawn on in this book.
