In The Sound of Exclusion, Christopher Chávez critically examines National Public Radio's professional norms and practices that situate white listeners at the center while relegating Latinx listeners to the periphery. By interrogating industry practices, we might begin to reimagine NPR as a public good that serves the broad and diverse spectrum of the American public.

In 1991 the U.S. Army sent Major Melissa Wells-Petry to the University Of Virginia Law School to research and write an in-depth report on the legal and social implications of admitting homosexuals into the armed forces. But the report was never released--it contradicted "politically correct" opinion. Now comes the release of the report the Army doesn't want you to read.

In Constitutional Exclusion, James J. Tomkovicz discusses the "exclusionary rules" which prevent evidence of a criminal defendant's guilt from being introduced at trial, and which incite strong, often hostile reactions from the public. The understandable antipathy toward evidentiary suppression is, to some extent, attributable to misunderstanding of the reasons why our legal system suppresses probative evidence of guilt. Professor Tomkovicz describes and discusses the natures and the purposes of the seven different constitutional exclusion mandates. The in-depth examinations and analyses of exclusionary rule histories, foundations, objectives, and doctrines found in the book dispel some of the critical misconceptions and flawed assumptions that surround the rules and that prevent appreciation of their significant roles in enforcing fundamental rights. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the delicate balance our Bill of Rights strikes between freedom and order, between liberty and security.

Resort by the state to measures of exclusion and expulsion from the territory of the UK and/or from British citizenship have multiplied over the past decade, following the so-called 'War on Terror', increased globalisation, and the growing politicisation of national policies concerning immigration and citizenship. This book, which focuses on the law and practice governing deportation, removal and exclusion from the UK, the denial of British citizenship, and deprivation of that citizenship, represents the first attempt by practitioners to provide a cohesive assessment of UK law and practice in these areas. The undertaking is a vital one because, whilst these areas of law and practice have long existed as the hard edge of immigration and nationality laws, in recent years the use of some powers in this area has greatly increased and such powers have arguably expanded beyond secondary existence as mere mechanisms of enforcement. The body of law, practice and policy created by this process is one which justifies treatment as a primary concern for public lawyers. The book provides a comprehensive analysis of the law in these areas and its background. This involves a consideration of interlocking international and regional rights instruments, EU law and the domestic regime. It is a clear and comprehensive everyday guide for practitioners and offers an invaluable insight into likely developments in this dynamic area of public law. '...deserves to be on the bookshelves of all those who seek to practise within this carefully defined area of immigration and nationality law.' From the Foreword by Lord Hope of Craighead KT
