Hazardous Waste and Pollution : Detecting and Preventing Green Crimes, Paperback / softback Book

Hazardous Waste and Pollution : Detecting and Preventing Green Crimes Paperback / softback

Edited by Tanya Wyatt

Paperback / softback

Description

This volume examines crimes that violate environmental regulations, as part of an emerging area of criminology known as green criminology.

The contributions to this book examine criminal justice concerns related to regulating and enforcing environmental laws, as well as the consequences for families and communities impacted by hazardous waste and pollution.

It also describes possible strategies for deterring and preventing organized crime related to environmental regulations, including black market sales of ozone depleting substances.

This innovative volume provides a criminological framework for understanding environmental harms.

Examining cases from the US, Europe and Australia, this volume compares and contrasts international approaches for regulating hazardous substances, and enforcing those regulations.

This work will be of interest to researchers in criminology and criminal justice, particularly interested in green criminology or environmental law, as well as researchers in environmental sciences, white collar and corporate crime, and policymakers.
