This is the first collection dedicated to the use of
intersectionality as theory, framework and methodology in
criminological research. It draws together contemporary British
research to demonstrate the value of intersectionality theory in
both familiar and innovative applications, including race, gender,
class, disability, sexual orientation and age. Experts explore a
range of experiences relating to harm, hate crimes and offending,
and demonstrate the impacts of oppression on complex personal
identities that do not fit neatly in homogenised communities.
Challenging conventional perspectives, it positions
intersectionality firmly into the mainstream of criminology.
This book draws upon empirical data to offer a fresh and unique
perspective on hate crime victimisation, using transphobic hate
crime as a case study. It adopts the lens of 'visibility' as a way
of understanding hate crime victimisation and to challenge dominant
theoretical and conceptual perspectives of hate crime. In adopting
this lens, key aspects of victimisation are explored, including the
hierarchical nature of hate crime victimisation that afford
visibility to particular types of victimisation and to particular
groups of people to make them 'legitimate' victims. In challenging
these notions, this book highlights the pervasive, everyday nature
of much hate crime and introduces the concept of 'micro-crimes' as
a way to conceptualise the nature of victimisation that is often
overshadowed by discussions around 'microaggressions' and more
socially recognisable forms of 'hate crime'. Key ideas relating to
space, place and identity performance are drawn upon throughout
these analyses and discussions to provide a nuanced overview and
conceptualisation of hate crime victimisation.
