Abstract

For the three editors, this volume marks the broadening out of a conversation that we began together some five years ago or more, about the relationship of the media to the racialisation of crime and the criminalisation of racialised others. We have learnt much from those who have here joined us in this conversation, and of course from those who have bequeathed us all the language and the terms of that conversation.
