Study - Equality and the Fight against Racism and Xenophobia - PE 615.660 - Committee on Civil Liberties, Justice and Home Affairs 28-03-2018 12:00 AM CEST This study specifically focuses on EU action and cooperation concerning equality and the fight against racism and xenophobia. Despite existing EU legislation and action it argues that there are still significant gaps and barriers to equal treatment and to adequate prevention and prosecution of, and compensation for, hate crimes within the European Union. The impact of the gaps and barriers identified – in action and cooperation – at EU level are assessed both in terms of economic impact and their impacts on economic rights and freedoms. To address these gaps and barriers, the study provides some options for EU action in the field. Source : © European Union, 2018 - EP QUESTIONS?
