The criminal attacks that occurred in the U.S. on September 11,
2001, have profoundly altered and reshaped the priorities of
criminal justice systems around the world. Domestic criminal law
has become a vehicle for criminalizing 'new' terrorist offenses and
other transnational forms of criminality. 'Preventative' detention
regimes have come to the fore, balancing the scales in favor of
security rather than individual liberty. These moves complement
already existing shifts in criminal justice policies and ideologies
brought about by adjusting to globalization, economic
neo-liberalism, and the shift away from the post-war liberal
welfare settlement. In Regulating Deviance, a collection of essays
focuses on the future directions for the criminal law in the light
of current concerns with state security and regulating 'deviant'
behavior. The contributions come from leading scholars in the
fields of criminal law and procedure, criminology, legal history,
law and psychology, and the sociology of law. (Series: Onati
