Beschreibung
Through an exploration of traditional and contemporary themes, Criminology and Law presents the relationship between the disciplines of law and criminology in an accessible and coherent way. It serves as an ideal companion to undergraduate Criminology and Law joint degree programmes and provides a contextual approach to crime that will be of interest to all students of the subject.
After introducing the relationship between law and criminology, the book sets out to explore how the law is applied in relation to several key areas, whilst also exploring critical criminological perspectives. In doing so, the book allows the reader to simultaneously develop their understanding of the principles of law and the major criminological perspectives and critiques of the law as they relate to:
- the criminal justice system
- policing
- violent offences
- sexual offences
- contemporary matters.
In exploring these issues through the lens of both criminology and law, this book highlights the complementary relationship and benefits brought by both legal and criminological inquiry, and how the investigative tools of both disciplines can be harnessed to develop a holistic and reflexive academic analysis.
