This volume examines the difficulty of naming racism in contemporary Europe and explores the critical purchase and effectiveness of analytical concepts of racism in national contexts.

Racism has become difficult to name in Europe. Racial semantics are shifting, race is coded in multiple ways and the defense of naturalized privilege is today regularly argued so as to preempt accusations of racism. The possibility to address racism as a particular kind of power formation has become complicated. This volume examines how "race" relates to the operations of social power in particular contexts and what the critical purchase and effectiveness of analytical concepts of racism can be. It combines conceptual reflections with case studies exploring the diverse conjunctures of talking about racism in European countries today.

Frank Peter is assistant professor of Islamic and Middle Eastern Studies at the University of Bern, Switzerland. His research interests embrace political Islam, politics of secularism and historical memory.
