CHAPTER SEVEN: CONCLUSION
Shaun L. Gabbidon is Distinguished Professor of Criminal Justice in the School of Public Affairs at Penn State Harrisburg. He earned his PhD in Criminology at Indiana University of Pennsylvania. Dr. Gabbidon has served as a fellow at Harvard University’s W. E. B. Du Bois Institute for Afro-American Research and as an adjunct faculty member in the Center for Africana Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. His areas of interest include race and crime, criminal justice and criminology pedagogy, and private security. Professor Gabbidon is the author of more than 100 scholarly publications, including 60 peer-reviewed articles and 11 books.
"Gabbidon′s book provides a sobering account of racism, inequality
and injustice, framed by processes of colonialisation, the effects
of which are still widely felt in many postcolonial contexts. It
will greatly assist teachers and students interested in comparative
research and analysis in this area."
*Dr. Coretta Phillips*
"The author does a great job at identifying the nature and scope of
the race/crime relationship. The race relations analysis within the
selected countries provides a great historical context;
particularly for students who are unfamiliar with the role of race
and ethnicity in criminal justice processing."
*Dr. Patricia Warren*
