The Palgrave Handbook of Criminology and War
This
interdisciplinary Handbook brings together into one coherent volume a
range of international authors, who firmly establish the relevance of
war within the discipline of criminology. The chapters address emerging
and prevailing issues in the criminological study of war, including
state crime, corporate crime, victimology, genocide, policing, security
and various forms of violence. Taking a critical standpoint including
feminist, cultural, and radical approaches amongst others, the Handbook
is split into five clear sections: (1) The Criminogenic Contexts of War;
(2) Violence and Victimization at War; (3) Violence, War and Security;
(4) Perpetrators of Violence and the Aftermath of War; and (5) Cultural
and Methodological Developments for a Criminology of War.
Edited by two leading experts in the field, this Handbook provides an original point of reference on the contemporary debates and applications of criminology and war and will be a key resource for academics and students across criminology, international relations, critical military studies, military sociology, peace studies and law.
