This book is unique in identifying and engaging with an analysis of racism in Mediterranean contexts...........The volume contributes to an empirically based theoretical re-framing of both the racialization of the globe and evaluation of the prospects for anti-racism and the post-racial. The Arab Spring and its aftermath, the hardening of racist exclusions, evictions and exploitation in Southern Europe and the accelerating migration of African people across this area all provide a highly dynamic context urging a re-assessment of the ways in which contemporary processes of racialization are working.
