Covington Jeanette: Drugs in Black and

Key Ideas in Criminology

This fascinating volume considers how surveillance is experienced by individuals within both the criminal justice system and the wider community, and argues that the coming together of different spheres of surveillance not only changes the way in which we respond to crime, but our relationship to the state and each other too.

International Perspectives on Child Victimisation

Policing in the UK is currently experiencing the most seismic shift in its nature, organization and purpose in recent history. Whilst cost and efficiency saving in the wake of the financial crisis will impact the size of the police, plans for increased privatisation, outsourcing and downsizing of core police functions will present further challenges ahead. Analysis of the problems at hand is further complicated by the variations and discrepancies between different local police forces around the UK: a factor that makes it impossible to generalize.This book examines the fractured terrain of UK policing and considers the way in which state policing in England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland is diverging on many issues, but converging on others. Issues covered include:<ul> <li>the effects of the devolution of criminal justice and policing powers to Scotland and Northern Ireland,</li> <li>the impact of the fiscal crisis and coalition austerity measures,</li> <li>debates about the likely impact of Scottish independence,</li> <li>the threat of organised crime and international terrorism,</li> <li>the peace process in Northern Ireland and on-going concerns about the dissident republican threat.</li> </ul>This is the first book to consider the myriad of issues and problems in policing across the UK and is essential reading for students, academics and researchers engaged with the criminal justice system, public policy and state policing.

Police and Policing in the UK

This outstanding textbook offers a comprehensive overview of organized crime groups around the world, combining theoretical perspectives with real-world examples from across the globe. Unlike other texts, this book steps beyond discussions of traditional organized crime groups, but also considers street gangs, supremacist groups and terrorists. Offering a transnational perspective, this text speaks to wider debate in international criminology including:<ul> <li>global security,</li> <li>human trafficking</li> <li>drugs and arms smuggling,</li> <li>technology and crime,</li> <li>international law enforcement responses.</li> </ul>Written by teachers with fifteen years experience of the classroom, this book is essential reading for students engaged with international organized crime and global criminology and justice. The book is supplemented with anecdotes, chapter summaries, discussion questions and suggestions of further reading and websites throughout, making it ideal for students and teachers alike.

A Transnational Perspective

Organized Crime

This text offers a comprehensive and holistic overview of the criminal justice process from the commission of an offence to resettlement or community supervision and formal exit from the process. It is designed to give students and researchers a unique insight into the criminal justice system, with a key focus on issues faced by practitioners and the impact these issues have on decision making. This book will:<ul> <li>Cover core stages of the criminal justice process: incident report &amp; investigation; arrest and interview; charging and initial appearance; trial and sentencing; community supervision, imprisonment and resettlement;</li> <li>Follow several hypothetical cases to understand the workings of the criminal justice process and engage in decision-making or role-playing exercises at each stage; </li> <li>Critically reflect upon how practitioners undertake their roles and how these are informed by due process and cultural practices at each stage;</li> <li>Analyse the processes, decisions and information flow against criminological and socio-legal literature centred upon core themes of contemporary criminal justice.</li> </ul>Each chapter includes a reflective statement from an experienced criminal justice practitioner and questions designed to guide readers to consider its significance and relevance against academic and theoretical literature. This book is essential reading for courses on criminal justice in England and Wales.

Re-imagining Juvenile Justice explores major concepts, issues, debates and controversies in the field of juvenile justice both nationally and internationally. It seeks to fundamentally reconceptualise or, as the title implies, ‘re-imagine’ juvenile justice.The book historicises contemporary juvenile justice before engaging a dispassionate and objective analysis of juvenile ‘crime’ in the modern age. Social harm and public health perspectives are applied both to contextualise juvenile ‘crime’ and to re-examine the legitimacy and efficacy of many conventional juvenile justice interventions with reference to ‘rehabilitation’, ‘harm reduction’, ‘crime prevention’ and ‘community safety’. It considers the extent to which international human rights standards might provide a unifying framework for juvenile justice law, policy and practice. The book also critically analyses the social, economic, political and cultural contexts that appear to sustain both progressive and repressive juvenile justice (both within and between national borders). Ultimately, the foundational principles of a juvenile justice with integrity - a radical alternative model to conventional (and failing) western juvenile justice systems - is set out.Re-imagining juvenile justice will have international appeal for students, teachers and researchers in criminology, sociology, social policy, social work, youth studies, cultural studies, socio-legal studies, law and political science.

Re-Imagining Juvenile Justice

This book provides a historical and theoretical introduction to criminology, examining the chronology of criminological theory, the social and political context of its development and its relationship with the criminal justice system.

How do criminologists attempt to explain the phenomena of crime and deviance? This accessible and engaging textbook provides some answers to this question by providing a historical and theoretical introduction to criminology, examining the chronology of criminological theory, the social and political context of its development and its relationship with the criminal justice system. Fully revised and updated, this text brings the discussion of theory up to the present day and includes further coverage of feminist and gendered theories of crime and criminality and the impact of cybercrime, transnational crime and globalized security on criminological theory. This book emphasises the political underpinnings to theoretical perspectives and encourages students to recognise the need to locate theories of crime and deviance in their structural contexts.The new edition is even more engaging for students than before. It contains more detailed and structured introductions and summaries in each chapter, as well as web-links, lists of further reading and study questions to encourage critical thinking. Throughout the book, students are encouraged to think about and apply theoretical understanding to concrete examples, making the book essential reading for courses on criminological theory and advanced issues in criminology.

Theory and context

Criminology

In 2013, the White Paper entitled ‘Transforming Rehabilitation’ advocated the dismantling of the probation service and the creation of two new entities: a smaller National Probation Service (NPS), which would work with high risk offenders, and larger Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs), who would work with medium and low risk offenders. This book offers a detailed analysis of the vast and radical changes taking place across the probation service in England and Wales, rooted in theory, policy and practice of public protection. Written by an expert in the field, with experience both as an academic and a practitioner, this book covers a range of topics such as discrimination, domestic violence, youth justice, mentally disordered offenders and substance abuse. It is essential reading for a range of courses on criminal justice, probation, offender management, community justice and crime and public policy.

Discourses of Law

Focusing upon the representations that take place in law, forensic medicine, criminology and culture, Crime Scenes examines the ways in which knowledge about crime, death and the dead body is produced.Forensic and medico-legal practices are charged with ‘handling’ the dead (who cannot speak for themselves) and do so primarily by making injurious events visible so that the law might pass judgment. The image is thus a key site for interpreting and reconstructing the past in legal discourse. Arguing that the images (photographic images, autopsy pictures, legal testimonies) and the narratives generated through their production are the prisms through which crime and death are seen and comprehended within law, Crime Scenes explores the tension exhibited by images, as both evidential and imaginative products. Key forensic and legal spaces – such as the crime scene, the mortuary and the courtroom – as well as key methods of representing crime and death – police photography, mortuary photography and the autopsy, and legal testimony – are considered in relation to the non-legal use of historical forensic photographs, the broader cultural fascination with such images, and the canon of mortuary art quarried from medico-legal domains. The formal ‘forensic’ image, it is argued, is a site of conjecture. And its various aspects are elucidated here through an examination of the creation and the exhibition of forensic images, and the trouble that emerges when discursive boundaries – such as those between law and art – begin to haemorrhage.
