Aprašymas
This compelling book exposes how policing and licensing practices shape the night-time economy as a racialised space, with harmful consequences for Black, Gypsy and Traveller communities. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and interviews with key nightlife stakeholders, it reveals how governance structures--from police-led meetings to stop and search--work to suppress Black-inspired events and performers in the UK.
Through critical analysis of diversity training, discriminatory door policies and street-level policing, this study offers a timely intervention into debates on race, surveillance and urban nightlife. It is essential reading for scholars of policing, urban studies and racial justice.
