posted on 2023-06-08, 23:16 authored by Mark WaltersMark Walters, Jennifer Schweppe
This book brings together internationally acclaimed scholars with researchers, policy makers and practitioners from across the world to critically scrutinize the concept of hate crime as a global phenomenon. The book seeks to examine whether hate crime can, or should, be conceptualized within an international framework and if so how this might be achieved. The book has split into three parts: Part I of this book examines the global dynamics of hate. It is here that our contributors begin to analyse whether hate crime can be defined globally, whether universal principles can be applied to the phenomenon, how hatred is spread, and how it impacts upon our global society. Part II moves beyond the broader questions of globalization to jurisdictional examples of how globalization impacts upon our understanding of, as well as our responses to, hate crime. It is here that the book explores in greater detail what is happening around the world and how the international concepts of hate crime are being operationalized locally. The aim of this part of the book is to draw out the themes of globalization and internationalization that are relevant to hate crime, as evidenced by a number of jurisdictions from Europe (West and East), the US, Asia, and Africa. Part III completes the book by examining the different ways in which hate speech and hate crime are being combated globally. International law, internet regulation, and the use of restorative practices are evaluated as methods of addressing hate-based conflict. The analyses found here draw from existing frameworks as well as exploring normative standards for future international efforts.
