Gender, Crime and Justice Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

This textbook takes a gender inclusive and intersectional feminist approach to examining key topics related to gender, crime and justice.

It provides an overview and critical discussion of contemporary issues and research in this area suitable for use in undergraduate and postgraduate degree modules.

A key feature of the book is its use of films, television series and documentaries to illustrate the concepts and findings from criminological research on gender, crime and justice.

After outlining the meaning of gender and the perspective of intersectional feminism, it has chapters focused on interpersonal and sexual violence, sex work and the night-time economy, street crime, crimes of the powerful, policing and the courts, prison and community penalties and a final chapter on extreme punishment and abolitionist futures.

It speaks to students and academics in criminology, sociology and gender studies.
