{"product_id":"race-in-the-shadow-of-eddie-bruce-jones-9781138649361","title":"Race in the Shadow of Law: State Violence in Contemporary Europe","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eRace in the Shadow of Law\u003c\/em\u003e offers a critical legal analysis of European responses to institutional racism. It draws connections between contemporary legal knowledge practices and colonial systems of thought, arguing that many people of colour experience the law as a part of a racial problem, rather than a solution, to racial injustice. Based on a critical legal ethnography of anti-racism work in Europe, and with an emphasis on the German context, the book positions Black and anti-racist perspectives at the centre, rather than the margins, of critically thinking through the intersection of race and law. Combining this ethnography with comparative legal analysis, discourse analysis and critical race theory, the book develops a critical discussion of the European legal frameworks aimed at regulating racism, and particularly institutional racism, in policy and policing. In linking this critique to the transformative potential of social movements, however, it goes on to examine the strategic and creative possibility of disrupting conventional modes of engaging, and resisting, law.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Eddie Bruce-Jones\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1138649368\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138649361\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/28\/2016\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 210\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.00lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.90h x 6.20w x 0.70d","brand":"Eddie Bruce-Jones","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48113282744575,"sku":"9781138649361","price":200.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9415e969-7ff6-455b-be91-dfc5b17ed13e.jpg?v=1769614072","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/race-in-the-shadow-of-eddie-bruce-jones-9781138649361","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
