Rezensionen

'Rich in conceptual insight, methodological rigour and innovative ideas, this book challenges us to look beyond conventional assumptions about disability, vulnerability and hate crime. This is essential reading at an urgent moment.'

- Neil Chakraborti, Professor in Criminology, University of Leicester

'This is a very important book that adds fresh perspectives on a key issue: disability hate crime. By including chapters covering such an impressively wide range of topics, Burch and Wilkin, themselves leading experts in the field, have compiled an excellent volume that provides the most comprehensive coverage to date of this important yet hitherto understudied form of hate crime. This book is a must-read for hate crime academics and practitioners alike.'

- Professor Jon Garland, University of Surrey
