Description

Victims, Crime and Society An Introduction provides a comprehensive account of victimization across diverse social contexts. The Second Edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded to cover key perspectives and issues in victimology.

Through its two-part structure, the book examines theoretical, social, and political contexts, including new chapters on defining and constructing victims, fear and vulnerability, sexuality, white collar crime, and the implications of crime policy on victims. It also explores a global range of historical and theoretical perspectives in victimology, as well as research methods for studying victims of crime.

With features such as critical thinking sections, future research suggestions, chapter summaries, and a glossary of key terms, Victims, Crime and Society is an ideal resource for students and scholars in criminology, criminal justice, community safety, youth justice, and related fields.
