PUBLICATIONS

	Title:- Racial Discrimination: The Record of Australia About the Book:- The federal government has begun to implement policies that reflect racist fears and tendencies latent in sections of the Australian population.

	Title:- Racial Discrimination: The Record of Japan About the Book:- The perceived homogeneity of Japanese society, Japan’s feudal history and modern war-time abuses have created an environment in which minorities suffer discrimination both directly and indirectly. While doka seisaku or a principle of assimilation is the overarching principle governing minorities in Japan, it co-exists with policies of segregation and discrimination. This report examines the harassment and social exclusion faced by four distinct racial and ethnic minorities: the Buraku; the indigenous Ainu and Okinawans, Japanese-born Koreans, and migrant workers from neighbouring Asian countries.
