Global Perspectives and Policy Implications

Sustainable Development Goals Series

The Role of National Preventive Mechanisms in Europe

Preventing Torture and Monitoring Places of Detention

Real Life with the Love Scammers of Lagos

The Yahoo Boys

This book critically examines violence and violent crime through sociological, psychological, and theoretical perspectives, analyzing the complex relationships between policing, community conflict, and crime control. Bringing together leading experts, it explores the underlying factors that contribute to violence, the impact of police practices, and the challenges of balancing law enforcement with public trust. The chapters are organized thematically to address key issues, including the psychology of violence, the role of communities in crime prevention, police brutality and accountability, and the increasing violence targeting law enforcement. Taking a global and comparative approach, the book investigates case studies from North America, Europe, Asia, Africa and the Pacific to assess how different societies respond to violent crime. It further considers policy implications, proposing evidence-based strategies to reduce violence, improve policing practices, and enhance institutional integrity in an evolving security landscape.

Psychological, Criminological and Global Perspectives

Policing, Violence, and Society

Palgrave Studies in Prisons and Penology

This book examines the role of the prison in the commissioning and delivery of theatre practice. It draws attention to discourses of publicly acceptable arts and other mechanisms of ‘soft power’ which shape access to prison theatre. Each chapter utilises engaging storytelling methods based on the authors own experience as a prison theatre practitioner to illustrate theory. The book explores understandings of the value of arts in prison and discuss how, in a neoliberal society, people in prison can be conceptualised as ‘deserving’ or ‘undeserving’ of these practices. It examines the role of the arts organisation in designing and delivering commissionable arts practice and in caring for both practitioners and participants. It also discusses the role of the university and the facilitator in delivering work that balances the often-conflicting agendas of the prison, the arts organisation and the participants alongside their own aims within a context of precarious employment. Finally, it examines the experience of participating in prison theatre, exploring incidents of care, interdependency and collective joy within the prison and assessing how, through the delivery of short-term and insecurely funded arts projects, prison theatre can produce experiences of both hope and harm.

Crime and Justice in Digital Society

This book examines the relationship between true crime and wrongful conviction in the age of streaming content. True crime plays a vital role in informing, entertaining, and developing public expectations surrounding justice. During the streaming era, true crime has emerged as a profitable option for content producers, leading to a form of engaged fandom entwined in the narratives of victims and criminals.&nbsp;The book is a culmination of research and analysis into the role of true crime in raising public awareness of narratives of wrongful conviction. It examines the effects on audience participation in seeking justice through digital enabled opportunities like crowd-sourcing, websleuthing, and online activism.

Palgrave Studies in Crime, Media and Culture

<div>
This book identifies an emerging Brazilian cultural criminology which combines Brazilian and Latin American critical criminology with the new avenues of investigation and methodologies that characterize cultural criminology more broadly. Bringing together various perspectives, it offers a new take on cultural criminology which demonstrates its international scope and innovative approaches to explore the specific problems of Brazil’s peripheral reality. It offers a window into past and present Brazil, discussing themes of colonialism, slavery, genocide, eugenics, police lethality, mass imprisonment, urban groups, Bolsonarism, youth gangs, mediated representation, and the pandemic.
The joint work of criminologists from Brazil constitutes a new facet of Brazilian critical criminology and a new facet of cultural criminology itself. Bound by their common political identity, these fields continue to develop and spiral together, challenging accepted notions of locality and reinventing academic and everyday forms of resistance in different arenas of the Global South and Global North. 
This book demonstrates that the reception and incorporation of methodologies and ideas from cultural criminology into Brazilian critical criminology do not reveal a simple reproduction, but rather that Brazilian criminologists continue to reinvent and contest, from the margins, the very cultural criminology of the Global North from which they were inspired to refine and expand the accumulated critical knowledge positioned against administrative criminology. 
The translation of this book was done with the help of artificial intelligence. A subsequent human revision was done for language and content.

A Critical Realist Approach

Police Stop and Search in England

My name is Jason Palmer and I'm an analyst for the U.S. National Security Agency. Computers and technology were my things back in high school. Several years ago, when I was just 14, I tackled my first case and became The Digital Detective. Reba, my next-door neighbor and best friend, discovered a digital trail that led us to foiling an international terrorist gang's plot. You'll never believe what happened. 

Password Protected, Mystery Unlocked. When the internet gets dangerous, The Digital Detective fights cybercrime one click at a time.

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This book explores narratives and practices around gender and criminal justice, with a focus on women in Latin America. The chapters are written by academics, policy-making institutions, women with lived experience and activist actors in Latin America. They provide a distinctive analysis of gender and criminal justice in the region, along with the tensions between victimization and agency in women’s paths of criminalization. This book looks at women’s resistance and responses to States’ processes of gender stereotyping and punishment. Ultimately, it showcases women’s collective capacity to shape the security agenda.
