All over Europe, asylum-seekers, immigrants and minorities are increasingly finding themselves under violent attack. What are the roles of the media, the public opinion and anti-racist movements? What can be done to stop the violence? These are questions addressed in this volume by some of Europe's leading experts on racism and racist violence.

This text applies a comparative, research-based approach to the study of racist violence in Britain, France and the Netherlands since 1945. It analyzes the development of public and state attitudes to racist violence, setting this violence within a historical perspective.
