Abstract
Racism has been on the rise since the international financial crisis began in 2008. Marxism argues that far from being a hangover from medieval ideas, racism developed alongside science and the Enlightenment. Modern ideas of race originated in the Atlantic slave trade and the growth of capitalism. The article describes the evolution of racist ideas through periods of slavery, empire and immigration. It looks at whether people who suffer racism can unite with those who do not. It examines racial identity and the boundaries of race, nation and religion.
