In a post-Macpherson, post-9/11 world, criminal justice agencies are adapting their responses to criminal behaviour across diverse ethnic groups. Race, Crime and Resistance draws on contemporary theory and a range of case studies to consider racial inequalities within the criminal justice system and related organisations.

Exploring the mechanisms of discrimination and exclusion, the book goes beyond superficial assumptions to examine the ensuing processes of mobilisation and resistance across disadvantaged groups. Empirically grounded and theoretically informed, the book critically unpicks the persisting concepts of race and ethnicity in the perceptions and representations of crime.

Articulate and sensitive, the book clarifies complex ideas through the use of chapter summaries, case studies, further reading and study questions. It is essential reading for students and scholars of criminology, race and ethnicity, and sociology.

Dr Tina G. Patel is a senior lecturer in Criminology at the University of Salford. Tina’s research and teaching interests relate to race/racism, surveillance, crime, and discrimination in the criminal justice system. Tina specialises in undertaking qualitative research with excluded communities, who have often been presented as problematic and deviant. Tina has a number of publications in these areas, and is co-author of Race, Crime and Resistance (2011), and sole-author of Race and Society (2017), both published by Sage.
