Increase in racism does not bode well for tourism


 

The Guardian 12 December 2003 Overt racism increased in Britain lat year after nearly two decades of declining prejudice, according to British Social Attitudes, the 20th annual report from the National Centre of Social Research. In 1983, 35% of adults described themselves as prejudiced against people of other races. This rose to a peak of 39% in 1987 before falling steadily to 25% in 2000 and 2001. But last year the proportion claiming to be racially prejudiced jumped to 31%, the highest figure since 1994. Catherine Rothon and Anthony Heath of Oxford University, who wrote the research, said the result was probably linked to media coverage of immigration and asylum issues. They found a long-term relationship between self-reported prejudice and hostile newspaper coverage of immigration. Reaction to the September 11 terrorist attacks may also have contributed to a growth in Islamophobia. The study said: "Increasing levels of education help explain why Britain has gradually become less racially prejudiced. Generally speaking, more educated people are the least likely to be racially prejudiced. Less than one in five graduates (18%) admit to being prejudiced, compared with more than a third (35%) of those with no qualifications. "Although older people are no more or less likely than younger ones to admit to being racially prejudiced, they are far less likely to support anti-discrimination legislation. As this generation dies out, it is likely that support for such legislation will grow." It concluded: "We would emphasise the risks posed by a media-led campaign against immigration." The report noted that Britain's ethnic minority population had grown by more than half (53%) since 1991 and now stands at 4.6 million.
