DISE Members Join Oxford University Press' Intersections

Oxford University Press (OUP) has launched their new 2025 project Intersections. This new concept in interdisciplinary academic publishing aims to bridge the gap between books and journals for core original research. This research will be peer-reviewed, developed, and honed through feedback from external scholars, ensuring that the quality of the research is up to the highest possible standards. 

DISE is pleased to announce that two of their members will be amongst the first cohort of academics and global experts to support the emerging subjects most urgent and challenging in today’s society. Dr. Caroline Shenaz Hossein and Dr. Beverley Mullings are both joining Racism by Context; Dr. Hossein as an Advisory Board Member, and Dr. Mullings as the sole Section Editor of Labour and the Economy.

 

The Racism by Context Oxford Intersection

The lived experience of racism, for individuals and groups, involves the cumulative and connected impacts of racism operating from systemic and structural to overt and interpersonal levels across all social spheres, within contexts that carry the legacies of historical racism, often over centuries, and usually tightly interwoven with factors such as gender and class. The Racism by Context Oxford Intersection will explore this layered and multidimensional nature of racism through its structure of ten linked sections, each of which focuses on racism in a particular sphere (such as politics and government, labour and economy, education, the arts, health and welfare), each distinct but overlapping in scope with others, and interdisciplinary in its content. We believe this would be the first time such a systematic, integrated work exploring systemic, structural, and overt racism across social spheres has been attempted.
