Paul Gilroy, The Black Atlantic Harvard U. Press, 1993

Paul Gilroy, Darker Than Blue: On the Moral Economies of Black Atlantic Culture Harvard U. Press, forthcoming

How do racial politics play out in a former imperial power like Britain? What do popular desires for a restoration of national greatness do to how racial others and foreigners are perceived and treated? Paul Gilroy discusses the prospects for a robust multiculturalism; he also talks about the significance of Bob Marley's music and politics.
