Publisher's Synopsis
Be they victims, bystanders or perpetrators, children of all races experience racial abuse as an everyday event. This review of research reveals the challenges to be confronted. It explains why traditional child protection measures may be of little relevance to young people on the streets, in schools and at youth clubs. It stresses the importance of public consultation - taking into account the anxieties and perspectives of whole communities - in an effort to make public spaces safer for children.
