Description

A unique text/reader that provides an overview of both historical and contemporary race and crime issues

This innovative text/reader from pre-eminent authors and researchers Helen Taylor Greene and Shaun Gabbidon combines textual material with recent, carefully edited articles from well-known and emerging scholars. The articles have been published in leading criminology and criminal justice journals, such as Crime & Delinquency, Criminology, Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency, Justice Quarterly, and Theoretical Criminology. The book explores historical and contemporary issues such as race as a social construct; the treatment of minorities and immigrants in American history; explanations of race and crime; disproportionate arrest, victimization, and confinement; racial profiling; wrongful convictions; and the "War on Drugs."
