Description
The aim of this book is to stimulate criminological debate on issues of crime, race, racism and criminal justice and to offer practical guidance to those seeking to address race issues and confront racism. The text first critiques existing - largely empirical - research on race and criminal justice, and then presents theoretical advances in criminology and sociology, examining the methodological implications of applying such theory to future research. After reassessing the value of past research, particularly in terms of policy development, contributors discuss issues such as competing ethnic classification schemes, the definition of `racial' and ethnic data in criminal justice agency records. Theoretical contributions cons - from Amzon
