Description

This new volume of Sociology of Crime, Law and Deviance addresses issues of race and ethnicity within the law and law-related phenomena.

Even in today's so-called multicultural, post-racial world racial and ethnic concerns prevail in many aspects of modern law.

Contributors to this volume examine racial and ethnic disparities in sentencing and punishment; the continued problematic nature of the African American experience within the US system; the criminalization of immigrants; racial inequities in the administration of drug laws; and the racial disparities that affect juvenile justice.

This volume will be of interest to students and researchers in law, socio-legal studies, criminology, criminal justice, sociology and public policy.
