In this original and cutting-edge new textbook, Mike Rowe explores the
key topics in race and crime. Examining the main issues from a
historical and comparative approach, the book fully situates arguments
and ideas in a global context with contemporary examples. Encouraging
readers to think critically about well-worn debates, Race & Crime
covers a diverse range of issues, including: Representation and
Disproportionality Victimisation Human Rights Terrorism Popular
Culture Governance As with all books in the Key Approaches to
Criminology series, Race & Crime features extensive learning features
to help students to fully engage with topics covered. These include:
chapter overviews, study questions, further reading and key terms.
Stylishly written yet accessible, Race & Crime will prove
invigorating, vital reading for students in criminology, sociology,
race and ethnic studies, and cultural studies. The Key
Approaches to Criminology series celebrates the removal of traditional
barriers between disciplines and, specifically, reflects
criminology’s interdisciplinary nature and focus. It brings
together some of the leading scholars working at the intersections of
criminology and related subjects. Each book in the series helps
readers to make intellectual connections between criminology and other
discourses, and to understand the importance of studying crime and
criminal justice within the context of broader debates. The
series is intended to have appeal across the entire range of
undergraduate and postgraduate studies and beyond, comprising books
which offer introductions to the fields as well as advancing ideas and
knowledge in their subject areas.
