Anti-Social Behaviour Orders (eBook, PDF)

A Culture of Control?

Beschreibung

This book vigorously challenges the dominant academic view of ASBOs as erroneous tools of social control, and offers an alternative perspective on anti-social behaviour management which argues that ASBOs are capable of enabling a positive process of engagement among local authorities, housing professionals and residents.
