Key Ideas in Criminology

Prevention curtails freedom: cancer prevention entails not smoking; accident prevention entails putting pills in childproof containers; crime prevention entails not stealing things and hitting people. Prevention is usually seen as quite unexciting. Preventive medicine is less dramatic than surgery, crime prevention than detection. However, people doing less of one thing are free to do more of another: obesity prevention makes exercise possible and crime prevention frees up time, money and energy to invest elsewhere. This book seeks to enliven the topic of crime prevention by looking at pro-social behaviour alongside crime, to think of improving the quality of life by both deflecting people from the experience of crime – either as perpetrators, victims, or worried bystanders – and nudging them towards collaborative and altruistic behaviour; by changing things, places and people in ways which push people from crime and pull them towards active citizenship. Research and practice is reviewed taking this wider view of crime prevention.

Concepts for Critical Psychology

This book examines how neoliberal power shapes individual subjectivity in contemporary American workplaces through the lens of the Great Resignation-the 2021 mass voluntary job departure phenomenon.Drawing on in-depth interviews and a Foucauldian framework, the book traces how neoliberal rationalities of choice, flexibility, and self-optimization shape the ways individuals explain their labor decisions and evaluate their lives. Rather than treating the Great Resignation as a singular rupture, the analysis situates it within longer historical transformations in governance, capitalism, and employment relations.The book identifies differentiated modes of labor subjectivity-alignment, negotiation, and refusal-showing how workers variously inhabit, strain against, or attempt to revalue dominant norms of work and responsibility. Across chapters, it demonstrates how quitting becomes intelligible not simply as resistance or market behavior, but as an ethical and discursive practice shaped by uneven opportunities, affective demands, and institutional constraints. In doing so, the book reveals both the durability and the limits of neoliberal labor governance.Offering a theoretically rich account of how labor and life might be reimagined, the book is intended for scholars and advanced students in sociology, critical psychology, labor studies, and social theory, as well as readers interested in work, governance, and contemporary capitalism. It will also appeal to researchers and practitioners seeking critical insight into current debates about labor, precarity, and organizational life.

A Foucauldian Analysis

The Great Resignation as Neoliberal Compliance and Critique

An unprecedented dialogue between a long-term federal prisoner and a senior prison official exposes how America's carceral system scars everyone it touches.
No One Gets Out Unscarred makes a simple but rarely acknowledged case: America's prison system is failing not only the people it incarcerates, but also the staff who work inside it and the communities to which almost everyone returns. Rather than treating prisoners and correctional officers as opposing sides in a zero-sum struggle, the book shows how their lives are bound together by the same punitive culture, institutional incentives, and political decisions.
At the heart of the book is an extraordinary exchange between two men who spent decades on opposite sides of the bars. Robert Barton has been incarcerated since adolescence in high-security federal prisons. Jack Donson is a retired Bureau of Prisons official who began as a correctional officer and rose to become a case manager. Drawn from more than fifty hours of interviews, their interwoven accounts reveal how a system designed to punish and control ends up brutalizing prisoners while simultaneously eroding staff morale, health, and judgment, producing an adversarial environment that makes everyone less safe.
Moving beyond exposés and redemption narratives, No One Gets Out Unscarred examines the everyday mechanics of incarceration: routine lockdowns, restrictive housing, medical neglect, mental-health failures, broken grievance systems, decaying infrastructure, and the hollow promise of rehabilitation. These realities are not presented as abstractions or policy talking points, but as lived experience, seen from inside a cell and from within the bureaucratic hierarchy tasked with enforcing the rules.
Rejecting both abolitionist polemic and law-and-order defenses, the book asks a pragmatic question with urgent implications for public safety: if more than 95 percent of incarcerated people will eventually come home, what kind of prison system actually serves society? By centering shared trauma, accountability, and common-sense reform, No One Gets Out Unscarred reframes incarceration as a collective problem and opens a conversation long missing from the national debate.

The Case Against America's Prison System, From Both Sides of the Wall

No One Gets Out Unscarred

9 in 10 women experience ill mental health from poor life-work balance This book is for working women who feel dissatisfied with life, and who want to reinvent themselves to lead successful and fulfilling lives, in their personal life and at work. Our changing and challenging times have left many of us, and especially women, feeling burnt out, chronically worried and uncertain. At the same time, it's difficult to overstate just how much attitudes towards emotional wellbeing have changed in the last five years. As more and more of us struggle about how to exist in this unstable environment, question arise such as: How do you behave if you have a leadership role, given the unattractive role models we see currently in the US and elsewhere? What do you do as a mother when your children tell you they learnt at school that there will be a world war? The change is that women want a life that has meaning and purpose and there's more willingness to call out prejudice and predatory behaviour. Yet many of the same old problems persist. All of this is a case for stressing the importance of emotional connection, creativity and open-mindedness: attitudes and behaviours that will be at the heart of this timely book from pioneer coach, Jenny Rogers.
