We ask how public discourses—primarily by governments, politicians, mainstream media, but also by racially minoritized groups and migrant-led associations—frame the ambiguous social and legal status of mostly women of color \"essential” health care workers during the pandemic. We argue that hailing is a form of conditional inclusion. Hailing involves both the camouflaging of individuals' low-class status, precarious position in the workplace, gendered and racially minoritized positionality and insecure/non-permanent immigration status on the one hand, as well as the potential for resistance, emancipation, wider organizing, and claims-making on the other. Through a focus on Filipino/a workers because of their high levels of representation as health care staff in both contexts, our empirical analysis underlines that hailing as conditional inclusion is asymmetrical and unequal. It enables co-optation and deflection from structural inequalities as the price of conditional inclusion of selected individuals and groups. However, at the same time, hailing generates resistance. Through \"tiny openings” these contradictions are named, and the binary language of inclusion/exclusion is challenged.

This conceptual distinction problematizes groupist approaches and takes ethnic groupness as a variable to explore processes and dynamics of ethnic group formation. In this study, I improve and develop Brubaker’s conceptual distinction in two ways. First, I propose indicators for measuring ethnic category and ethnic group in the phenomenal world. Second, I develop a conceptual model based on the aforementioned conceptual distinction. I propose that ethnic identity can take four forms on the bases of how ethnic category members perform their ethnic identities in social and political domains: (1) socially and politically active ethnic identity, (2) socially active but politically dormant ethnic identity, (3) socially dormant but politically active ethnic identity, (4) socially and politically dormant ethnic identity. I suggest that these identity forms help us better understand the implications of the terms ethnic category and ethnic group at individual level by applying it to the Kurdish case in Turkey.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75161309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While liberal democratic societies’ unanimous condemnation of that invasion was followed by unprecedented sanctions and a rupture of diplomatic and economic relations with Russia, some Western social and political actors supported, to some extent, the Russian rhetoric regarding the invasion of Ukraine. Consequentially, this paper not only reveals that Russian state discourses aimed to justify the invasion, it also identifies the selective dissemination of Russian state discourses by the AfD in Germany. Moreover, it compares the antagonistic discursive dynamics in the authoritarian pseudo-civil sphere and the similar discourses of the radical right in the democratic civil sphere, and examine their reception in Russia and Germany. Drawing on Multilayered Narrative Analysis, which relies on a combination of cultural sociological Civil Sphere Theory (CST) and mnemonic figurations developed in the historical sociology of Bernhard Giesen, this paper first describes the Russian state discourses intended to sacralize the Russian invasion of Ukraine. It then examines to what extent the populist radical right disseminated these in Germany, before analyzing and comparing the symbolic influence of such discourses in the Russian pseudo-civil and German civil spheres.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80108731","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Klatt","doi":"10.1080/13537113.2023.2207870","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1080/13537113.2023.2207870","url":null,"abstract":"Avigail Eisenberg argues that, in Canada, multiculturalism presents important obstacles to decolonization. Furthermore, Amanda Gouws presents the difficulties in applying the concept of multiculturalism to postcolonial societies in her discussion of South Africa. The book has a global reach but dedicates less attention to some interesting cases. The extensive coverage of the Canadian case is self-evident and provides a useful point of reference for the various discussions in the book. Other parts of the Americas are relatively little discussed. The chapter on language policies in the United States uses a multitude of quotations, which are hard to contextualize and might not be accessible for a global readership. In addition, the significance of multicultural politics in Latin America is mentioned only in passing in the book. Yet, the chapter by Debra Thompson on Black Lives Matter convincingly provides evidence to the claim that multiculturalism has proven wholly insufficient to challenge persistent racial inequality in democratic societies. The chapters also include well-written introductions on rights of minorities in the European Union by Dolores Morondo Taramundi and anti-multiculturalism in contemporary Hungary by Zsolt K€ ortv elyesi. The book also covers the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on diverse societies: Anna Triandafyllidou discusses whether the pandemic emergency can lead to both policy and analytical innovation in matters of membership and citizenship, and Tim Soutphommasane questions the durability of Australian multiculturalism during the pandemic. The editors, Yasmeen Abu-Laban, Alain-G Gagnon, and Arjun Tremblay, provide useful introductory and concluding chapters that tie the book together: They outline multiculturalism’s contemporary challenges and possible futures, framing the book’s overall engagement with multiculturalism’s promise and limitations. However, the emphasis on the shortcomings of multiculturalism and the need for other approaches somewhat hides the significant contribution of the Canadian experience of multiculturalism both to international discussions and to global recognition of minority rights. Yet, a critical debate on multiculturalism is necessary, and the book provides a relevant overview of critical debates on diversity politics. This valuable collection of chapters will be of great interest for anyone involved in contemporary debates on diversity politics and will serve as a key publication for anyone with an interest in the trajectory and future of multiculturalism.","PeriodicalId":45342,"journal":{"name":"Nationalism and Ethnic Politics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90546392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
