PALGRAVE STUDIES IN CRIME MEDIA AND CULTURE M...

Media  Crime and Racism draws together contributions from scholars at the leading edge of their
field across three continents to present contemporary and longstanding debates exploring the
roles played by media and the state in racialising crime and criminalising racialised
minorities. Comprised of empirically rich accounts and theoretically informed analysis  this
dynamic text offers readers a critical and in-depth examination of contemporary social and
criminal justice issues as they pertain to racialised minorities and the media. Chapters
demonstrate the myriad ways in which racialised 'others' experience demonisation  exclusion 
racist abuse and violence licensed - and often induced - by the state and the media. Together 
they also offer original and nuanced analysis of how these processes can be experienced
differently dependent on geography  political context and local resistance. This collection
critically reflects on a number of globally significant topics including thevilification of
Muslim minorities  the portrayal of the refugee 'crisis' and the representations and resistance
of Indigenous and Black communities. This volume demonstrates that processes of racialisation
and criminalisation in media and the state cannot be understood without reference to how they
are underscored and inflected by gender and power. Above all  the contributors to this volume
demonstrate the resistance of racialised minorities in localised contexts across the globe:
against racialisation and criminalisation and in pursuit of racial justice.
