Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
This book considers what combating racism means in the context of the enlarged EU, and examines the extent to which ethnic equality objectives have, in practice, been integrated within EU law and policy, exploring the effects in the key areas of employment, education, health and housing, immigration, and criminal law.
MoreLong description:
The European Union has committed itself to combating racism as a general objective of law and policy. EU legislation requires Member States to introduce laws prohibiting racial discrimination in many aspects of everyday life, including employment, education, healthcare, and housing. Alongside legislation requiring action at national level, the EU institutions have also made periodic commitments to 'mainstream' racial equality: taking anti-racism objectives into account within all areas of EU law and policy.
This book analyses the extent to which the objectives of combating racism and promoting ethnic equality have been effectively mainstreamed throughout a wide range of EU policy fields. It begins by considering what combating racism means in the contemporary context of the enlarged EU. Bell explores what mainstreaming ethnic equality objectives entails, and whether the priorities and instruments differ from those adopted in the earlier mainstreaming of gender equality, or those used on other discrimination grounds. The second part of the book examines the extent to which EU law and policy objectives have, in practice, been integrated, exploring the effects in the key areas of employment, social inclusion (including education, health and housing), immigration, and criminal law.
Mark Bell succeeds in making the book easy to read and accessible. The structure of the book is the secret; the chapters are relatively short, each discussing one subject and ending with a conclusion. At the end of the conclusion, the writer introduces the next issue and puts it in perspective, by using the previous chapters. There is no chance that the reader loses the overall structure or idea of the book. Bell writes plainly, clearly and concretely, he takes the reader by the hand.
