The many colors of crime

Ruth D. Peterson, Lauren Krivo, Ruth Peterson, John Hagan

About this book

Considering race and ethnicity as organising principles in why, how, where and by whom crimes are committed and enforced, this volume argues that dimensions of race and ethnicity condition the very laws that make certain behaviours criminal, and the determination of who becomes a victim of crime under which circumstances.
