| Summary: | Presents a study of the extent to which an increased influx of foreign workers is a threat to law and order in the context of the data-generating process of police statistics and the media coverage of 'crimes' committed by foreigners. This book examines the role played by the police, judiciary and the media in the criminalization of these workers. |
