This thesis examines the Z box contribution to the weak charge of the proton. Here, by combining recent parity-violating electron-deuteron scattering data with our current understanding of parton distribution functions, the author shows that one can limit this model dependence. The resulting construction is a robust model of the and Z structure functions that can also be used to study a variety of low-energy phenomena. Two such cases are discussed in this work, namely, the nucleon s electromagnetic polarizabilities and quark-hadron duality.

Since the original publication of Hate Crime, the study of prejudice, hatred and crime has developed both in terms of scope and legislative and community responses. This book builds and expands upon the success of the first edition and offers a truly international approach to theories, concepts and examples, such as race, gender, transgender, disability and hate crime on the internet. Features of the new edition include:

• Historical perspectives of hate crime, particularly in countries where hate crime has only recently, or is yet to be acknowledged as a problem,

This edited collection brings together many of the world's leading experts, both academic and practitioner, in a single volume handbook that examines key international issues in the field of hate crime. Collectively it examines a range of pertinent areas with the ultimate aim of providing a detailed picture of the hate crime 'problem' in different parts of the world. The book is divided into four parts:

• An examination, covering theories and concepts, of issues relating to definitions of hate crime, the individual and community impacts of hate crime, the controversies of...
