Outlining the key developments of the Disability Hate Crime policy
agenda, Seamus Taylor brings together a unique consideration of the
theoretical and practical questions at its heart. This book
analyses the contributions of activists, politicians, policymakers
and criminal justice system practitioners to policy development,
and critiques both the under-recognition of disability prejudice
fuelled by ableism and the challenge of vulnerability in addressing
disability hostility. Concluding that a critically reflective
approach on the part of policymakers and practitioners can lead to
progress, the author gives clear policy recommendations to address
current challenges in the criminal justice system.

This book provides a unique insight into the lived realities of
hate crime in Ireland and its treatment within the criminal justice
system. The significance of the Irish case is contextualised within
the European and global policy contexts and an overview of hate
crime in Ireland, both north and south, and its differential
treatment in each jurisdiction's criminal justice system is
offered. Presenting empirically grounded analyses of the
experiences of commonly targeted identity groups in an Irish
context, this study also draws upon their exposure to hate crime
and challenges encountered in seeking redress. Combining theory,
research and practice, this book represents legal, social, cultural
and political concerns pertinent to understanding, preventing,
deterring and combatting hate crime across Ireland. It incorporates
a variety of perspectives on the hate crime paradigm and addresses
many of the cutting-edge debates arising in the field of hate
studies. Contributions from Irish and international academic
researchers are complemented by applied pieces authored by
practitioners and policy makers actively engaged with affected
communities. This is a progressive and informed text which will be
of great value to activists, policy makers and scholars of hate
crime and criminal justice.
