DEL OLMO PINTADO, Margarita. Trading with Differences: Racism from Race to Culture. Cuad. Sur, Hist. [online]. 2004, n.33, pp. 9-23. ISSN 1668-7604.
My proposal in this article is to analyse the relationship between cultural differences and racism. I will try to show how in the case of Spain, which is a new immigrant society, racism has been discovered and explained as a social reaction to immigrants. My thesis is that this is false. In addition I have another and more ambitious goal, which is to discuss the concept of culture from the perspective of an explanation of what racism is about and what it is for in social terms. In my opinion, nowadays, the concept of culture, reflects some of the social mechanisms employed in the past to generate and give legitimacy to racial classifications.
