"Neatly and succinctly takes readers through ways to understand and
interpret the label of 'antisocial' behaviour in a wider context,
showing how it is socially, historically and culturally produced as
well as understood in professional health and policing or
correctional contexts." - Cathy Coleborne, University of Newcastle,
Australia "A timely work given the present global shift in the use
of social media and violence. Cate Curtis' book serves as a
multinational mini-meta-analytic review of anti-social behaviours"
- Richard Langford, University of Hawaii West Oahu "Cate Curtis'
coverage in this book is breath-taking. It is centred on
challenging taken for granted assumptions concerning the three Rs:
'risk', 'resilience' and 'recovery' whilst questioning what is
respectable everyday activities and extreme behaviour in culture
and society." - Shane Blackman, Canterbury Christ Church University
Cate Curtis seeks to disrupt assumptions about anti-social
behaviour by bringing together a host of key concepts and theories
applicable to the field. Going beyond individualised discussions,
the book explores broader concepts such as the social construction
of 'anti-social behaviour', 'risk' and 'resilience', and the social
contents and influences under which these are most likely to occur.
An excellent companion for researchers and postgraduate students in
of anti-social behaviour across criminology, social psychology,
sociology and social work.
