Using experimental studies, this text offers fresh empirical evidence that the issue of race still pervades American consciousness and prevents blacks winning elections in white majority districts. The author explores election campaigns which, he says, appeal to whites' racial fears and sentiments.

The word lynching is most likely American in origin, but the practice of lynching, defined by scholars as extralegal group assault and/or murder motivated by social control concerns, can be found in many global cultures and eras. This collection of essays looks at lynching and related varieties of collective violence, such as vigilantism and rioting, across world cultures. Analyzing lynching and collective violence in the Americas and Europe, the chapters highlight both the presence of mob violence in a number of cultures and eras and the particularity of its occurrence in certain cultural and historical contexts.

La tendencia doctrinaria, que exalta la influencia de la raza hasta el punto de considerarla el eje de la historia -y da pábulo con ello, a las expreciones de racismo- no ha tenido comprobación cientifica.

Four cases in which the legal issue was "race" - that of a Chinese restaurant owner who was fined for employing a white woman; a black man who was refused service in a bar; a Jew who wanted to buy a cottage but was prevented by the property owners' association; and a Trinidadian of East Indian descent who was acceptable to the Canadian army but was rejected for immigration on grounds of "race" - drawn from the period between 1914 and 1955, are intimately examined to explore the role of the Supreme Court of Canada and the law in the racialization of Canadian society.
