Disruptive Concepts in Modern British Society: Refugee Crisis, Immigration, Race, and Racism

Abstract

Society as described by Benedict Anderson [1] must be settled and organized by taking into account the fears and worries of minorities for, it is imagined because the members of even the smallest nation will never know most of their fellow-members, meet them, or even hear of them, yet in the minds of each lives the image of their communion. The institutionalization of the police and their indifference to atrocities inflicted on Blacks and other minorities had brought about that ‘war’ that should not have taken place if the law-makers or policymakers and politicians had earlier decided to get to the root of the problem. So, why immigration and racism are so problematic and pronounced in a period of globalization where Human Race in general, must be promoted everywhere? At the end of this article, we can state that the notions we are interested in are still disruptive. To the most reluctant with the policy of welcoming refugees they consider as invaders, western values are threatened in the cultural, political and even economic levels. Facts related to those concepts are constantly reported in those western countries. We read into policies on refugee crisis, immigration, race, and racism and then confront them with reality with the implementation and analysis of Stuart Hall’s [2] ‘critical race theory’ and John Solomos’ [3] conciliatory strategy to praise diversity merits. We also tackled the role of central and local authorities in handling these boiling issues. As we mentioned in this paper, policies are not always suitable for the resolution of political and social problems. Actually, authorities and natives will not let their guard down; which means that the threat is real and everywhere.
