Rezensionen
"The essays of Framing Excessive Violence are timely, helping readers make sense of the (seemingly) unfamiliar violence of 2016. And the paradox that the volume identifies - that excessive violence transgresses social and moral codes and yet eventually becomes tamed by them - is provocative and worth further exploration." (Jared Del Rosso, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books, clcjbooks.rutgers.edu, January, 2017)
