Crime and Criminology in South Africa provides a comprehensive analysis of criminological theory, the criminal justice system and prevalent forms of criminality (namely gender-based violence, racially motivated and xenophobic crime, property crime, organised crime and corporate crime) in South Africa. In addition, the book aims to contribute to the revival of theoretical criminology, which currently receives little systematic attention in South Africa.Crime and Criminology in South Africa will be key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in the field of criminology and criminal justice.

Crime and Criminology in South Africa provides a comprehensive analysis of criminological theory, the criminal justice system and prevalent forms of criminality (namely gender-based violence, racially motivated and xenophobic crime, property crime, organised crime and corporate crime) in South Africa. In addition the book aims to contribute to the revival of theoretical criminology, which currently receives little systematic attention in South Africa. The book is split into three parts: Part One contains an analysis of criminological theory; Part Two examines specific forms of criminality that are prevalent in South Africa; and Part Three evaluates criminal justice agencies and processes, as well as the position of victims in the criminal justice system. It also includes chapters on restorative justice processes and crime prevention.Crime and Criminology in South Africa will be key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students, as well as researchers in the field of criminology and criminal justice.

Crime and Criminology in South Africa

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.

Crime Prevention

This book is concerned with the practical, ethical and political realities of critical research around state punishment. Based on a series of interviews conducted with researchers within and outside of academia, it aims to capture the personal challenges, ethical dilemmas, practical obstacles, positive rewards and (potential or actual) harmful effects of undertaking critical research concerned with state punishment. It essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of criminology, media, sociology, journalism, film studies, and cultural studies.

This book is concerned with the practical, ethical and political realities of critical research around state punishment. By definition, critical research is a dynamic and political process which recognizes the broad structural contexts within which human action takes place. Critical researchers argue for a more dynamic and reflexive approach to research, and have duties to expose oppressive structures and practices, make audible voices that are habitually silenced, and empower and emancipate marginalized groups and individuals. Based on a series of interviews conducted with researchers within and outside of academia, this book aims to capture the personal challenges, ethical dilemmas, practical obstacles, positive rewards and (potential or actual) harmful effects of undertaking critical research concerned with state punishment. It will also explore the different mediums used to disseminate research findings and how such findings are received by peers, the public and the state.Researching Punishment is essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of criminology, media, sociology, journalism, film studies, and cultural studies.

Police and Policing in the UK

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.

New Directions in Critical Criminology

Drawing on a range of approaches including conflict, critical race, and social control theories, this book provides a comprehensive theoretical review of the need for a critical historical intersectional theory of policing and race.

The reaction to Ferguson, the murder of Trayvon Martin and other police-related deaths around the US has brought race and the criminal justice system to the forefront of current scholarly discussion. However, unlike the past, racial realism has been brought to the front line via expressions from those affected by police mistreatment as well as official reports from the Department of Justice and social justice advocacy groups. Although a public conversation has begun, lacking within this discourse is a cogent forthright criminological assessment that includes expressions and namely experiences from those affected by police-violenceDrawing on a range of approaches including conflict, critical race, and social control theories, this book provides a comprehensive theoretical review of the need for a critical historical intersectional theory of policing and race. Disrupting the obsolescence of racial realism in policing literature, this book also discusses the social and democratic implications of using critical historical intersectional analyzes in criminological research involving race.

Tracing lessons from history and drawing on debates of social harm; public health; reductionist and abolitionist perspectives; and comparative and transnational research, Goldson articulates the content and shape of a re-imagined juvenile justice that is theoretically informed, based on evidence and compliant with human rights.

Re-Imagining Juvenile Justice

Routledge Advances in International Relations and Global Politics

Does judicial accountability have a valid place in ending corruption and augmenting rebuilding of the shattered state? Dave Benjamin offers a thoughtful polemic intended to provoke discussion about how to bring justice to peoples who are disenfranchised by kleptocracy, and who seek justice that would hold those who have plundered their countries judicially and criminally responsible for their actions.

The international community is at a critical juncture. Although efforts are being made by intergovernmental and international non-governmental organizations to prevent and stop corruption, its effects have been felt in many post-colonial states where the ability of the state to meet the needs of the citizenry has been severely compromised or crushed. Does judicial accountability have a valid place in ending corruption and augmenting rebuilding of the shattered state? Dave Benjamin offers a thoughtful polemic on the application of norms of international criminal law to the prosecution and prevention of kleptocracy. Intended to provoke discussion about how to bring justice to peoples who are disenfranchised by kleptocracy, Benjamin examines events in Democratic Republic of Congo, Haiti, Liberia, and Somalia and posits that kleptocracy needs to be classified and prosecuted as an international crime to punish kleptocrats and their associates; secure the return of resources and assets to the states and peoples from which they were stolen; and act as a deterrent to future kleptocrats. Entering an entirely new area of inquiry and discussion, this rigorous and highly original analysis of corruption is a must read for all those interested in international criminal law, development studies, and international human rights.
