Criminal Accusation (eBook, PDF)

Political Rationales and Socio-Legal Practices

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Accusing someone of committing a crime arrests everyday social relations and unfurls rituals that decide on who to admit to criminal justice networks. This book frames a socio-legal field directed to practices of accusation. The focus is the powers of an accusatory lore that creates subjects within the confines of legally authorized spaces.
