Race, Riots and Policing

Lore and Disorder in a Multi-racist Society

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1993, this was the first systematic attempt to understand the criminalization of Black people without resorting to either crude state conspiracy theories or pathological portrayals of Black communities. Instead, the author places police/Black conflict in a geographical and historical context.
