Economic Transformation and the Racialisation of Labour

Department of Sociology Massey University New Zealand

This paper examines the adequacy of three particular approaches, the political economy of labour migration, cul tural Marxism and regulation theory, in explaining the nature of ethnic disadvantage in contemporary capitalism. The substantial economic changes of the 1980s, it is argued, have endorsed the ethnic disadvantages which previously existed in the labour market in New Zealand and elsewhere. The concern is to establish how adequately these approaches theorise both economic transformation and labour force segmentation along ethnic lines.
