Tina G. Patel, "Race, Crime and Resistance"
English | ISBN: 1849203997 | 2012 | 208 pages | PDF | 2 MB
Race, Crime and Resistance offers a thought-provoking account of the problematic construction of crimes as racialized. Critical, empirically grounded and theoretically informed, it unpicks the persistence of concepts of race and ethnicity in perceptions and representations of crime.

It explores the mechanisms of discrimination and exclusion, and the ensuing processes of mobilization and resistance.
