Rezensionen

"This edited collection offers a tantalizing look at the future directions that criminological analysis, politics and practice could take in the wake of the crisis in neoliberal and free-market hegemony [...] It is a landmark text which is essential reading for scholars of

Criminology, Sociology, Social Geography and Policy studies, and would be a suitable [...] book for undergraduate and postgraduate courses on contemporary or critical issues in Criminology."
