Description: |
For decades, scholars have disagreed about what kinds of behaviour count as crime. Is it simply a violation of the criminal law? Or is it behaviour that causes serious harm? This examination of crime features contributors who debate the content of crime from various diverse perspectives. |
Synopsis: |
In What Is Crime?, the first book-length treatment of the topic, contributors debate the content of crime from diverse perspectives: consensus/moral, cultural/relative, conflict/power, anarchist/critical, feminist, racial/ethnic, postmodernist, and integrational. Henry and Lanier synthesize these perspectives and explore what each means for crime control policy. |
