ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION This book has explored the formation of 'race' equality consciousness from a specific, admittedly limited, point of view. Its focus has been upon anti-capitalist radicalism and anti-racism as public educational (or, more broadly, public professional) projects. This perspective may not have been an entirely comfortable one for those readers who are themselves immersed in this occupational field. However, it has, I believe, provided some useful insights into an important, and all too often neglected, social and political location. Moreover, although the book has been highly focused, it has nevertheless engaged a wide variety of political forms and ambiguities. In the process it has opened up some of the problems and possibilities of radical and anti-racist representation.
