Beskrivning

How to deal with differences based on culture, ethnicity and race, has become a key issue of policing. This edited collected explores everyday, often mundane interactions between police officers and migrantised actors in European countries and asks how both sides deal with perceived differences. The contributions reflect that such differences are not just ‘out there’ but are being situationally (re-)produced in police-citizen encounters. By taking a comparative approach, the book develops a distinctly European perspective on these questions. The book contains 12 ethnographies from ten European countries, based on new and often innovative empirical research, two theoretical contributions, an introduction and a postface.

'This book is a recommended study that nicely incorporates anthropology, criminology, history, linguistics, and sociology.'Ryan Shaffer, Ethnic and Racial Studies'The ethnographic observations on Europe at the center of Policing race, ethnicity and culture: Ethnographic perspectives across Europe are much appreciated because the literature on policing and racial relations is typically heavily focused on the United States. This book effectively situates race, ethnicity and culture at the center of how police forces (re)produce - and govern - moral and institutional parameters, allowing for a comparative study of police relationships with newcomers in Europe.' Muhammad Asad Latif, Nationalism and Ethnic Politics'Policing race, ethnicity and culture provides inspiring leads for future studies of the police and of migrant-state interactions in Europe. It is, therefore, a must read for both students and researchers across the board of social sciences.' Sophie Andreetta, Legal Pluralism and Critical Social Analysis'Through the diversity of the contexts studied and [...] a real empirical anchoring which leaves a large place for the words of the actors [...] this work makes an important contribution to the analysis of the role of the police in the (re)production of racial categories in European societies.' Paul Grassin, Government and Public Action
