Menifield, University of Missouri, United States The subject of policing and race is a cornerstone of economic and social justice discussions regarding public policy and law enforcement behavior. When disparate treatment occurs based on race and ethnicity, claims to social equity may be diminished, along with perceived commitments to a just and fair society. We seek a broad range of manuscripts that explore in depth the attitudes, behaviors, contexts, and administrative practices associated with racial discrimination and institutional racism as well as manuscripts that identify how communities avoid disparate treatment. Racial discrimination is often associated with racial profiling and other deliberate practices. Institutional racism is a self-perpetuating process involving barriers and procedures that disadvantage ethnic and minority groups (Ward and Rivera 2014). Studies may approach the subject from various perspectives, including examinations of organizational culture, racial profiling, social justice, antiterrorism, immigration, critical race theory, and comparative human cognition, as well as studies within the framework of an international, comparative, or subnational context. Qualitative and quantitative studies providing insights from disciplines such as policy studies, law and legal studies, criminal justice, sociology, economics, political science, and psychology will be considered. Manuscripts are due no later than January 15, 2016, to the coordinating guest editor at jdward@muw.edu. After initial screening, authors of selected manuscripts will be invited to submit directly to Public Administration Review’s (PAR) Editorial Manager for double-blind review, with final decisions regarding publication being made by PAR’s editors. All authors should comply with PAR’s style guidelines. Reference Ward, James D., and Mario A. Rivera. 2014. Institutional Racism, Organizations and Public Policy. New York: Peter Lang Publishing.
