Race, Criminal Justice, and Migration Control Summary

Race, Criminal Justice, and Migration Control: Enforcing the Boundaries of Belonging by Mary Bosworth (Professor of Criminology and Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford and, concurrently, Professor of Criminology at Monash University, Australia)

The criminalization of migration is heavily patterned by race. By placing race at the centre of its analysis, this volume examines, questions, and explains the growing intersection between criminal justice and migration control. Through the lens of race, we see how criminal justice and migration enmesh in order to exclude, stop, and excise racialized citizens and non-citizens from societies across the world within, beyond, and along borders. Race and the meaning of race in relation to citizenship and belonging is excavated through the chapters presented in the book, and the book as a whole, thereby transforming the way we think about migration. Neatly organized in four sections, the book begins with chapters that present a conceptual analysis of race, borders, and social control, moving to the institutions that make up and shape the criminal justice and migration complex. The remaining chapters are convened around the key sites where criminal justice and migration control intersect: policing, courts, and punishment. Together the volume presents a critical and timely analysis of how race shapes and complicates mobility and how racism is enabled and reanimated when criminal justice and migration control coalesce.

Race, Criminal Justice, and Migration Control Reviews

Race, Criminal Justice, and Migration Control "seeks to reorient the burgeoning field of literature on migration control in criminology and criminal law around issues of race" (p.4). Together, the contributors do much toward achieving this goal as they explore, test, and analyze the many ways in which racism drives migration control and migration controls, tied to criminal justice systems, perpetuate racial subordination. * Allison Crennen-Dunlap, Crimmigration.com *

About Mary Bosworth (Professor of Criminology and Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford and, concurrently, Professor of Criminology at Monash University, Australia)

Mary Bosworth is Professor of Criminology and Fellow of St Cross College at the University of Oxford and, concurrently, Professor of Criminology at Monash University, Australia. She is Assistant Director of the Centre for Criminology and Director of Border Criminologies, an interdisciplinary research group focusing on the intersections between criminal justice and border control. She conducts research into the ways in which prisons and immigration detention centres uphold notions of race, gender, and citizenship and how those who are confined negotiate their daily lives. Her research is international and comparative and has included work conducted in Paris, Britain, the USA, and Australia. She is currently heading a five-year project, 'Subjectivity, Identity and Penal Power: Incarceration in a Global Age' funded by a starting grant from the European Research Council. Alpa Parmar is a lecturer at the Oxford University Centre for Criminology. Alpa Parmar read Social and Political Sciences at Cambridge and then completed her doctorate (University of Cambridge) in which she empirically examined perceptions of Asian criminality in the UK. Following this she held a British Academy Postdoctoral fellowship at Kings College London in which she researched police stop and search practices under the Terrorism Act 2000 and the consequences of counterterrorist polices for minority ethnic groups, particularly British Asian people. Her research considers the theoretical implications of security practices upon notions of belonging and ethnic identity, and multi-cultural citizenry. During her postdoctoral fellowship, she was a visiting scholar at Berkeley, University of California, at which time she conducted a comparative policing study on stop and search and stop and frisk. Yolanda Vazquez is an associate professor at the University of Cincinnati College of Law. Her research examines the intertwined relationship between immigration law and the criminal justice system. Her scholarship has focused on the role of US criminal courts and the duties of defence lawyers in advising non-citizen defendants on the immigration consequences of a criminal conviction.
