The disproportionate criminalisation and incarceration of
particular minority ethnic groups has long been observed, though
much of the work in criminology has been dominated by a somewhat
narrow debate. This debate has concerned itself with explaining
this disproportionality in terms of structural inequalities and
socio-economic disadvantage or discriminatory criminal justice
processing. This book offers an accessible and innovative approach,
including chapters on anti-Semitism, social cohesion in London,
Bradford and Glasgow, as well as an exploration of policing
Traveller communities. Incorporating current empirical research and
new departures in methodology and theory, this book also draws on a
range of contemporary issues such as policing terrorism,
immigration detention and youth gangs. In offering minority
perspectives on race, crime and justice and white inmate
perspectives from the multicultural prison, the book emphasises
contrasting and distinctive influences on constructing ethnic
identities. It will be of interest to students studying courses in
ethnicity, crime and justice.
