Description

Crime, Justice and Human Rights is an introduction to the philosophy, law and politics of human rights, specifically tailored for criminologists and criminal justice practitioners. The authors explore how human rights frameworks can inform new directions in criminology by integrating them with various subject areas, including criminalization, state crime, and crime prevention. This critical, multidisciplinary text features case material from around the world, providing a comprehensive understanding of human rights in relation to criminological topics. It supports teaching and learning across a range of subjects, helping students, researchers, and independent readers to incorporate human rights paradigms into their analysis. By examining both the potential and limitations of human rights, this book offers a valuable resource for those looking to deepen their understanding of the complex relationships between crime, justice, and human rights.
