“…Part of this debate centres on the limitations of Census categories based on skin colour, geography and nationality. These arguments have been well rehearsed elsewhere and will not be repeated here (see for example, Ahmad & Sheldon, 1993;Ahmad, 1996;Modood et al, 1997;Ratcliffe, 1996;Temple & Chahal, 2002).…”

“…Social scientists interested in ethnicity have debated the effects of using different terminologies in ethnicity research (Ahmad, 1996;Ahmad & Sheldon, 1993;Aspinall, 2002;Temple & Chahal, 2002). Part of this debate centres on the limitations of Census categories based on skin colour, geography and nationality.…”

“…This point is well made in relation to housing needs assessments. Since Smaje made his case for looking at 'white' communities and Temple & Chahal (2002) argued the point in relation to older 'white' minority ethnic communities housing needs in Britain, there has been a boom in housing needs assessments that include refugee and asylum seeker communities, including 'white' communities (for example, King's Fund, 2000). However, these communities are rarely included in research as minority ethnic communities.…”

In this paper, the authors draw out some of the issues involved in housing needs assessment with minority ethnic communities. In particular, they look at three aspects of 'injustices of engagement': (1) in the communities that are recognised; (2) who within these communities is included in needs assessments; and (3) how they are included. In the latter category they challenge the extent of community involvement in needs assessments generally and specifically in relation to the Western baselines of definitions of need. It is argued that unless issues of language are addressed the baseline will continue to be the researcher's Western value system and the needs will defined by them.
