Abstract

The terms racism, discrimination, prejudice, othering, and xenophobia are often used in research literature without proper differentiation, or interchangeably. The aim of this article is to look at the uses and meanings of these terms, describe the main differences between them, and offer insights on how to use them in academic texts. Differentiating between the terms is essential, because the words we use guide the way we understand racism, its causes, and the actions we believe to be effective in countering it.
