Martin Glynn

Black Men, Invisibility and Crime (eBook, ePUB)

Towards a Critical Race Theory of Desistance

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Martin Glynn builds on recent empirical research in the UK and the USA and uses Critical Race Theory as a framework for developing a new theory of desistance. This book posits that the voices of black men offer a unique opportunity to refine the understandings of desistance and demonstrates how a more thoroughgoing appreciation of desistance can be gained by studying the ways that this process is racialised.
