Produktbeschreibung

This handbook addresses the role of the criminal-legal system in projecting and enforcing racial injustice across the globe. It consists of high-profile contributions that expose structural relations, global colonial and imperial histories, class oppression, and ongoing hegemonic domination that generate racial injustices and are embedded in criminalization and law enforcement. The handbook considers racist ideologies and their origins, racist institutions, procedures, and practices, and their impacts, and resistance/collective responses to racism. It includes a range of different types of chapters including conceptual/theoretical, empirical, methodological, practitioner, and activist insights. It speaks to contemporary issues and is first of its kind to address racial injustice on a global scale. It is explicitly anti-racist and gathers works of critical criminology, sociology, cultural studies, postcolonial studies, and cognate fields. The handbook pays special attention tointersectional dynamics including nexuses of racism, class, gender, and sexuality. The Handbook focusses on the settler colonial and global majority countries, their peoples and their struggles, including questions of Indigenous justice.
