Multiculturalism or anti-racism?
journal contribution
posted on 2023-06-08, 08:35 authored by Alana LentinTrevor Phillips’s attack on the utility of multiculturalism – with particular reference to modern Britain, where he heads the Commission for Racial Equality – is a symbol of how globalisation is indeed helping to dissolve national frontiers. What do I mean by this? Quite simply, there appears to be a growing consensus among western governments and decision-makers, particularly in the context of the post–9/11 “war on terror” that the west must ideologically stand together. Trevor Phillips could not have made his comments before 11 September 2001; neither, perhaps, may he have wanted to.
