Samenvatting:

The Routledge Handbook of International Crime and Justice Studies presents the enduring debates and emerging challenges in crime and justice studies from an international and multi-disciplinary perspective. Guided by the pivotal, although vastly under-examined, role that consumerism, politics, technology, and culture assume in shaping these debates and in organizing these challenges, individual chapters probe the global landscape of crime and justice with astonishing clarity and remarkable depth.

A distinguished collection of experts examine the interdisciplinary field of international crime and justice. Their contributions are divided into thematic sections, including:

• theory, culture, and society
• industries of crime and justice: systems of policing, law, corrections and punishment
• the criminal enterprise
• global technologies
• media, crime, and culture
• green criminology
• political violence
• public health criminology
• the political economy of crime and justice.
