LONGMAN CRIMINOLOGY SERIES Series editor Tim Newburn Racism, Crime and Justice This authoritative new textbook is the first to offer a comprehensive critical analysis of racism and the criminal justice process from crime and victimisation to policing, punishment and probation. Criminological research and official statistics produced by the Home Office, police, courts and prisons are closely examined and are balanced by documentary accounts published by minority community organisations and the experiences of practitioners in the criminal justice system. The conclusion critically examines New Labour's crime control polices and argues that 'zero tolerance', the 'culture of control' and 'institutional racism' will intensify injustice and the criminalisation of ethnic minority communities in Britain. Racism, Crime and Justice is suitable for use by undergraduate and postgraduate students taking courses in law, criminology, criminal justice and police studies. It is also suitable for use on sociology, social policy, and social science degrees and on interdisciplinary courses specialising in racism, ethnicity and social exclusion.
