Criminology assumes the position of an established discipline, yet
its influence is limited by its primary focus on the West for both
theoretical and empirical substance. But the growing interest in
comparative criminology now means that countries compare notes,
thereby broadening the parameters of criminology. Still relatively
ignored in the literature, however, are issues of crime and justice
as they affect people of African descent around the globe. Drawing
upon materials from countries in Africa, the Caribbean, North and
South America, and Europe, this stimulating book reflects on the
experiences of people of African descent to offer a convergence of
criminologies in and outside the West. Simultaneously, it
acknowledges Western criminology as a significant angle from which
to comprehend crime and justice as they are conceptualized outside
the West. The volume also investigates whether Western
criminological accounts are relevant to the comprehension of crime,
criminality and systems of justice in Africa, the Caribbean and
South America.
