De två största studierna i Sverige kring invandrares brottslighet har genomförts av Brottsförebyggande rådet (BRÅ). Den första publicerades 1996, ''Invandrare och invandrares barns brottslighet'', och omfattade tidsperioden 1985-1989. Drygt tio år senare utkom rapporten ''Brottslighet bland personer födda i Sverige och i utlandet'' som omfattade femårsperioden 1997-

The aim of the paper is to examine how public libraries can develop their services for children with ethnic minority backgrounds as a user group. This is achieved through studying the conditions for library services provided for children aged 9-12 in this group by public libraries in suburbs densely populated with ethnic minorities.

There is a widely regarded issue in Sweden, where its residents are categorized based on both their racial- and foreign affiliation, which may contribute to an individual's social exclusion from society. The categorization is based on a social construction with two opposite poles, “Swedes” and “non-swedes”, which causes concern for individuals with a foreign background as they become victims o
