Race, Immigration, and Social Control: Immigrants’ Views on the Police: Palgrave Studies in Race, Ethnicity, Indigeneity and Criminal Justice

Autor Ivan Y. Sun, Yuning Wu
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 mai 2018
This book discusses the issues surrounding race, ethnicity, and immigrant status in U.S. policing, with a special focus on immigrant groups’ perceptions of the police and factors that shape their attitudes toward the police. It focuses on the perceptions of three rapidly growing yet understudied ethnic groups – Hispanic/Latino, Chinese, and Arab Americans. Discussion of their perceptions of and experience with the police revolves around several central themes, including theoretical frameworks, historical developments, contemporary perceptions, and emerging challenges. This book appeals to those interested in or researching policing, race relations, and immigration in society, and to domestic and foreign government officials who carry law enforcement responsibilities and deal with citizens and immigrants in particular.

Recenzii

“Sun and Wu’s book presents some guidelines for academic researchers to investigate immigrants’ perceptions of the police. This book can also be useful to those who teach undergraduate or graduate policing classes where the instructor wants to discuss various challenges of the American police and critical thinking about the police-community relations in multicultural society.” (Jaeyong Choi, Journal of Criminal Justice Education, Vol. 30 (4), 2019)

“Sun (Univ. of Delaware) and Wu (Wayne State) focus on Latino, Chinese, and Arab immigrants’ perceptions of police in the US and the various factors that shape their views. They provide a summary of research available on the topic and report on their own scholarly work. … Given the rise of xenophobia in the US and increased use of local police to enforce immigration laws, this is a timely book. … Summing Up: Recommended. Upper-division undergraduates through faculty.” (M. Escobar, Choice, Vol. 56 (03), 2018)​
