===== Date and country of first publication<ref>Date and country of first publication as informed by the Scopus database (December 2023).</ref>===== 2021<br> Iraq ===== Definition ===== Racial postcolonial segregation refers to the division and separation of different racial or ethnic groups in a society that has been influenced by the history of colonialism. It occurs when the legacy of colonial rule perpetuates inequalities and discrimination based on race or ethnicity. During the era of European colonialism, many countries were divided along racial lines, with indigenous populations being marginalized and oppressed by the colonizers. Even after independence, these racial divisions may persist due to the lasting effects of colonialism, including institutional racism and socioeconomic disparities. Postcolonial segregation can manifest itself in various forms, such as residential segregation, where different racial groups live in separate neighborhoods or areas. It can also be seen in education systems, where certain racial or ethnic groups may have limited access to quality education or face discriminatory practices. Additionally, racial segregation can occur in the labor market, with certain groups being excluded from certain sectors or facing unequal job opportunities. The consequences of racial postcolonial segregation are far-reaching and detrimental to social cohesion and equality. It hinders social integration, perpetuates racial stereotypes and prejudices, and exacerbates socio-economic disparities among different racial groups. The lack of interaction and understanding between different racial or ethnic groups can lead to further marginalization and a perpetuation of social inequality. Addressing racial postcolonial segregation requires acknowledging and confronting the historical legacy of colonialism and its impact on society. It calls for policies and efforts that promote equality, inclusion, and social justice for all racial and ethnic groups. This can involve implementing anti-discrimination laws, investing in quality education for marginalized groups, promoting diversity in all aspects of society, and fostering dialogue and understanding among different racial or ethnic groups. ==See also== ==References== ==Notes== <references /> {{NoteAI}} ==Racial Postcolonial Segregation appears on the following literature==
