Klappentext zu „Racism in and for the Welfare State “
This book presents a global overview of racism against immigrants within and in the name of the welfare state. Rich in documents and historical perspective, it analyses politics, practices, and discourses of welfare racism through the exam of discriminatory laws, measures and speeches by institutional actors, public figures, and organizations.
The strength and persistence of this form of racism are due to several factors, including racism's structural position in modern society, a colonial root of welfare state, the intrinsic limits of social rights in capitalism, and punitive migration policies.
An instrument of selection, exclusion and stigmatisation, welfare racism is a distinguishing feature of anti-immigrant institutional policies, which became specially aggressive in the neoliberal era with the dismantling of the welfare state and social rights.
Integrating perspectives from Belgium, Brazil, Germany, Hungary, Israel, Italy, Japan, Spain, Sweden, the United Kingdom, and the United States, welfare racism results a global and structured phenomenon concerning world labour as a whole, producing inequalities and division in the working class.

Pressezitat
"Welfare in and for the Welfare State constitutes an important and relevant reading today. It provides a comparative perspective on welfare racism, and it helps us understand how welfare systems are being used around the world to exclude (instead of including) certain ethnic and economic categories. The book is ... a comparative perspective on how welfare racism can shed light on both the challenges and opportunities for achieving racial justice and equity within welfare institutions, across different national contexts." (Giacomo DiPasquale, Journal of Economics, Race, and Policy, Vol. 6 (2), 2023)
