This multidisciplinary Research Handbook investigates the inequalities and divisions rooted in race and ethnicity, many of which transcend borders and traditional conceptions of justice. Chapters present a broad and inclusive perspective on justice, harm, and minority status within criminal institutions and broader society.

Leading and emerging experts utilize a range of methodologies to assess how crimes have been defined and punished across the world and throughout history. They examine the disproportionate criminalization, policing, conviction, and punishment of racialized minorities, alongside their victimization and exclusion from social, economic, and civil life. With a focus on how theory, policy, and activism intersect, the Handbook provides prescient insights into future academic research and legal and policy reformations.

The Research Handbook on Race, Crime and Justice benefits students and scholars of criminology, psychology, sociology, law, and political science. It is also an essential read for policymakers and practitioners of criminal law and justice, as well as those focused on diversity, equity, and inclusion.
