Description
Crime and Deviance by Tony Lawson and Tim Heaton is an introduction to the sociology of crime and deviance. This student-focused text explores key concepts and essential theory, providing clear guidance for building knowledge and understanding of the topic. The book examines sociological theories, including functionalist, feminist, and postmodernist debates, and critiques their relevance in modern society. It also delves into the compilation of criminal justice data and crime statistics, questioning their reliability and accuracy. Additionally, it investigates new types of crime, such as surveillance, terrorism, green crime, and state crime. With its Skills-Based Sociology series, this edition is packed with tasks, activities, and exam practice questions to encourage active learning and critical thinking.
