New racism is an influential term coined in 1981 by scholar Martin Barker, in the context of the ideologies supporting Margaret Thatcher rise in the UK, to refer to racist public discourse depicting immigrants as a threat.

1980s immigrations flows

Xenophobic sentiment has reemerged in European countries starting from the 1980s, when the increase in global inequalities between poor and rich countries led to significant immigration flows, which were exploited by conservative political leaders as Margaret Thatcher and Bettino Craxi.
