Muhammad Anwar passed away on 11 June 2019, at the age of 75 after 50 years of research and policy development in the area of race and ethnic studies. In this article, I explore his numerous contributions, including his important work, The Myth of Return: Pakistanis in Britain, published in 1979. His interest in politics and, in particular, participation, and representation within it, led to Race and Elections, published in 1994. His subsequent works on identifying the intergenerational differences among British Pakistanis, who also happen to represent a significant proportion of British Muslims, developed into his final major book, Between Cultures, published in 1998. I explore the nature of his contribution, the impact that it had in the field of race and ethnic studies, and the research openings generated for other scholars to expand on his social anthropological and sociological emphasis on better understanding the experiences of racial and ethnic minorities and the need to better develop policies to alleviate ethnic and racial disadvantage.

穆罕默德·安瓦尔（Muhammad Anwar）在种族和民族研究领域进行了50年研究和政策制定后，于2019年6月11日去世，享年75岁。在这篇文章中，我探讨了他的无数贡献，包括他的重要著作《回归神话：英国的巴基斯坦人》（1979年出版）。他对政治的兴趣，尤其是其中的参与和代表性，导致了种族与选举，于1994年出版。他随后的研究工作旨在确定英属巴基斯坦人之间的代际差异，这些人恰好也代表了很大比例的英国穆斯林，后来发展成他的最后一本主要著作《文化间》。，于1998年出版。我探讨了他的贡献的性质，它在种族和族裔研究领域中的影响以及为其他学者扩展其社会人类学和社会学重点为更好地理解人类的经历而提供的研究机会。种族和少数民族以及需要更好地制定政策来减轻种族和种族不利的需求。
