“…There are a few limitations to the present paper. While we focus on the implications of structural racism for minority health outcomes in the U.S., we note that the phenomenon of structural racism by no means is unique to this country and is evident in many White-dominant societies around the world, including Canada ( Tuyisenge & Goldenberg, 2021 ), Australia ( Plater et al, 2020 ), New Zealand ( Came, Baker, & McCreanor, 2021 ), and numerous European countries ( Miller, 2021 ; Razai, Majeed, & Esmail, 2021 ). This may come as no surprise as these nations and regions were built on much of the same European colonial history as the U.S. ( Painter, 2010 ).…”

“…Structural racism, which has received increasing coverage in the literature, particularly in USA [63], remains to be systematically studied in Australia. Emerging studies on Indigenous deaths in custody, and on housing, healthcare and workplaces, indicate that racism occurring at the structural level can significantly impact the wellbeing of Indigenous peoples and migrants [7,[64][65][66][67]. What is more, while there are indications that racism is more commonly experienced in some settings (e.g.…”

Racism in Australia: a protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

et al. 2022

Background Racism has been identified as a major source of injustice and a health burden in Australia and across the world. Despite the surge in Australian quantitative research on the topic, and the increasing recognition of the prevalence and impact of racism in Australian society, the collective evidence base has yet to be comprehensively reviewed or meta-analysed. This protocol describes the first systematic review and meta-analysis of racism in Australia at the national level, focussing on quantitative studies. The current study will considerably improve our understanding of racism, including its manifestations and fluctuation over time, variation across settings and between groups, and associations with health and socio-economic outcomes. Methods The research will consist of a systematic literature review and meta-analysis. Searches for relevant studies will focus on the social and health science databases CINAHL, PsycINFO, PubMed and Scopus. Two reviewers will independently screen eligible papers for inclusion and extract data from included studies. Studies will be included in the review and meta-analysis where they meet the following criteria: (1) report quantitative empirical research on self-reported racism in Australia, (2) report data on the prevalence of racism, or its association with health (e.g. mental health, physical health, health behaviours) or socio-economic outcomes (e.g. education, employment, income), and (3) report Australian data. Measures of racism will focus on study participants’ self-reports, with a separate analysis dedicated to researcher-reported measures, such as segregation and differential outcomes across racial/ethnic groups. Measures of health and socio-economic outcomes will include both self-reports and researcher-reported measures, such as physiological measurements. Existing reviews will be manually searched for additional studies. Study characteristics will be summarised, and a meta-analysis of the prevalence of racism and its associations will be conducted using random effects models and mean weighted effect sizes. Moderation and subgroup analyses will be conducted as well. All analyses will use the software CMA 3.0. Discussion This study will provide a novel and comprehensive synthesis of the quantitative evidence base on racism in Australia. It will answer questions about the fluctuation of racism over time, its variation across settings and groups, and its relationship with health and socio-economic outcomes. Findings will be discussed in relation to broader debates in this growing field of research and will be widely disseminated to inform anti-racism research, action and policy nationally. Systematic review registration PROSPERO CRD42021265115.

“…Coloniality in academia is present in scholars' marginalisation with non-Western heritage and exclusion from academic spaces [23]. Many scholars have discussed such experiences in recent years [23,[36][37][38][39][40][41]. Such experiences, along with the existence of hierarchies in academia, continue to be shaped by coloniality, which has led scholars and students to call for the decolonisation of knowledge, especially since 2015 when South African students started a campaign called Rhodes Must Fall.…”

Decolonisation of knowledge over the past few years has gained much traction among scholars and students in many countries. This situation has led to calls for the decolonisation of knowledge, academia, the university, and university curricula. That said, the knowledge production side of the terrorism industry, which sits inside academia, so far has escaped calls to decolonise. This situation is somewhat surprising because the terrorism industry has had a tremendous impact on many countries, especially Muslim majority ones. The 9/11 terrorist attacks have resulted in a tremendous amount of knowledge being produced and published on terrorism and counterterrorism. However, little is known about “who is publishing on terrorism and where they are based”. To this end, this paper adopts a decolonial approach and addresses the questions of “who is publishing on terrorism and where they are based” by analysing seven terrorism journals. It argues that most of the publications and knowledge on terrorism in the seven terrorism journals are produced by scholars with Western heritage and are based at Western institutions, which is connected to the coloniality of knowledge.
