'For any criminologist looking to make sense of recent developments
in the field, this is the go-to book. In essays by leading
specialists, it provides the latest updates on traditional theories
whilst charting new directions. It also offers intepretive
frameworks for criminology's current flux and fragmentation and
closely examines relationships among theory, policy, and criminal
justice practice. Invaluable and indispensible!' - Nicole Rafter,
Professor, Northeastern University The SAGE Handbook of
Criminological Theory re-centres theory in the boldest, most
thought-provoking form possible within the criminological
enterprise. Written by a team of internationally respected
specialists, it provides readers with a clear overview of
criminological theory, enabling them to reflect critically upon the
variety of theoretical positions - traditional, emergent and
desirable - that are constitutive of the discipline at the
beginning of the twenty-first century. Each chapter has been
specially commissioned to include the following: " A brief
historical overview of the theoretical perspective " Core ideas and
key associated concepts " A critical review of the contemporary
status of the perspective " Reflections on future developments In
addition the Handbook features a substantive introduction by the
editors, providing a review of the development of criminological
theory, the state of contemporary criminological theory and
emergent issues and debates. The SAGE Handbook of Criminological
Theory is an indispensable international resource for libraries and
scholars of all levels studying the rapidly developing,
interdisciplinary field of criminology.
