À propos de cet audio

Across the four jurisdictions on our two islands (England and Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Ireland), a law reform process is underway in relation to hate crime legislation. These are taking very different forms, with England and Wales seeking to reform legislation which is now over twenty years old, and Ireland considering the introduction of such legislation for the first time. This podcast seeks to discuss and analyse some as yet unexplored, or underexplored themes, across these law reform processes. With expert guests each week, the hosts Prof Mark Walters of the University of Sussex and Prof Jennifer Schweppe of the University of Limerick debate key issues in hate crime law reform.
