Críticas

-The Criminology of Criminal Law examines the disjunction between criminal justice and criminology, and represents a plea for the criminal justice system to pay attention to the research, and heed the admonitions, of criminologists... I recommend the perusal of this book by criminal justice scholars interested in the intersection of criminal law and criminology. There are nuggets of wisdom to be gleaned.- --Craig Hemmens, Law and Politics Book Review "The Criminology of Criminal Law examines the disjunction between criminal justice and criminology, and represents a plea for the criminal justice system to pay attention to the research, and heed the admonitions, of criminologists...

Reseña del editor

The Criminology of Criminal Law considers the relation between criminal law and theories of crime, criminality and justice. This book discusses a wide range of topics, including: the way in which white-collar crime is defined; new perspectives on stranger violence; the reasons why criminologists have neglected the study of genocide; the idea of boundary crossing in the control of deviance; the relation between punishment and social solidarity; the connection between the notion of justice and modern sentencing theory; the social reaction to treason; and the association between politics and punitiveness.Contributors include Bonnie Berry, Don Gottfredson, David F. Greenberg, Marc Riedel, Jason Rourke, Kip Schlegel, Vered Vinitzky-Seroussi, Leslie T. Wilkins, Marvin E. Wolfgang, and Richard A. Wright. The Criminology of Criminal Law concludes with an analysis of the results of a study on the most cited scholars in the Advances in Criminological Theory series. This work will be beneficial to criminologists, sociologists, and scholars of legal studies.Advances in Criminological Theory is the first series exclusively dedicated to the dissemination of original work on criminological theory. It was created to overcome the neglect of theory construction and validation in existing criminological publications.
