description The reappearance and deepening of racism are analyzed from a perspective that is critical ofthe social foundations of that phenomenon in its four main aspects: class oppression, racialoppression, national oppression and sexual oppression. We discuss why the category race isstill full of significance and importance, not only to understand the roots, ideological componentsand practices of racism, but also for confronting racism with anti-racist struggles. Weproblematize the schematic distinction between old and new racism, as well as the nexusbetween racism and nationalism. In the center of the debate, we can find current questionslike the “ethnicization” of non-white peoples in peripheral countries, the criminalization ofimmigration, and the compression of workers’ salaries and rights.

O retorno em campo e a agudização do racismo são constatados e analisados a partir daperspectiva crítica aos fundamentos sociais desse fenômeno, em sua base quadrangularde atuação: opressão de classe, opressão de raça, opressão de nação, opressão de sexo.Discute-se por que a categoria raça é ainda hoje plena de significado e tem importância, sejapara o entendimento das raízes, das componentes ideológicas e das práticas do racismo, sejapara o seu enfrentamento pelas lutas antirracistas. Problematiza-se a oposição esquemáticaentre o velho e o novo racismo, bem como o nexo entre racismo e nacionalismo. No centrodesse debate, encontram-se questões atuais como a “etnização” dos povos não-brancos depaíses periféricos, a criminalização da imigração, a compressão dos salários e dos direitos dostrabalhadores. 2015-07-01 2022-03-17T18:04:41Z 2022-03-17T18:04:41Z info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/ls/article/view/25758 10.23925/ls.v19i34.25758 http://biblioteca-repositorio.clacso.edu.ar/handle/CLACSO/50206 por https://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/ls/article/view/25758/pdf application/pdf Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo Lutas Sociais; v. 19 n. 34 (2015): Marxismo e questão racial; 70-86 2526-3706 1415-854X 10.23925/ls.v19i34
