“A lucid collection at the cutting edge of critical engagement with how academic research may be used or ignored, this book stands out as a novel and distinct contribution to our understanding and will be of vital use to researchers and practitioners alike." Dr Nasar Meer, Reader in Comparative Social Policy and Citizenship, Strathclyde University
“A richly rewarding collection that challenges both academics and policymakers to think differently about how we can develop better policy agendas in this complex field” Professor John Solomos, Department of Sociology, University of Warwick
“Combining reflective and detailed case studies and thoughtful theoretical accounts, this collection provides a well-judged and challenging intervention in how academic research and policymaking in the field of 'ethnic relations' intersect.” Dr Gavan Titley, National University of Ireland Maynooth
