Synopsis

Gerstenfeld (California State U. at Stanislaus) explores hate crime in the United States and the response of the legal system to it. He synthesizes the current data and explains the controversies and debates regarding hate crime legislation. Chapters explore the psychological and sociological profiles of perpetrators, discuss the history and activity of extremist groups, profile victims, and discuss efforts to address hate crime not related to the criminal justice system. Also included is a chapter which overviews international aspects of the problem. Annotation ©2003 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
