Using a detailed case study of an area of East London, this book
documents the everyday abuse, assault and intimidation that is
suffered by ethnic minorities in Great Britain. The author explains
and analyses the process through which violence is targeted at
these minorities, along with the role that the ideas and language
of racial exclusion take in this process. The apparent failure of
the police and "multi-agency initiatives" to respond effectively to
this problem is then looked at in depth. This book is based on
detailed analysis of official documents, a victimisation survey,
interviews and direct observation, seen in the overall context of
the history of race relations in Britain. It describes some of the
many thousands of racist attacks that have occurred in recent years
and the events in the last two decades that have shaped English
racism and the political and policy responses to it.
