| Abstract (English): | This article calls for a differentiated discussion of different forms of discrimination and racism. The reason for this is that a totalizing understanding of racism, which claims a comprehensive racist structuring of society, fails to recognize the complexity and contradictory nature of social conditions and relations. In connection with this, the question must be raised whether a critique of racism that claims for itself the position of a radical critique of contemporary societies is more appropriately to be understood as an expression of a social transformation in which racism is no longer suitable as an ideological basis for the production and legitimation of economic inequalities and political power relations.
