Hate Crimes Criminal Law & Identity Politics - Click here for more info

In the early 1980s, a new category of crime appeared in the criminal law lexicon. In response to concerted advocacy-group lobbying, Congress and many state legislatures passed a wave of 'hate crime' laws requiring the collection of statistics on, and enhancing the punishment for, crimes motivated by certain prejudices. This book places the evolution of the hate crime concept in socio-legal perspective. - Category: Books Reading - Misc. - New - Item: 461409983 - Hate Crimes Criminal Law & Identity Politics
