Criminology for Social Work critically reviews the major strands in
criminological theory and research in terms of their implications
for social workers in the criminal justice system. While
acknowledging the complexity of the links to be made, it argues
that they are able to enhance practice by making it more critical
and realistic. Individual chapters discuss criminological
psychology, the labelling perspective, the concentration of crime
and victimisation in particular localities, the contributions of
feminist criminology, and the evidence of racism in criminal
justice. They also cover the connections between criminology and
policy. The conclusion suggests how criminology could be enriched
by feminist philosophy and psychology.
