Crime and Justice in the Trump Era documents the impact of Trump
administration policies on (1) violence against women, (2) the
treatment of persons of color, (3) corporate and environmental
crime (both domestic and international), and (4) federal crime
control policy. First, the book examines how the policies of Donald
Trump's administration have affected the rights and safety of
female Americans-in particular, violence against women, including
sexual assault. The book then goes on to explore President Trump's
very public stances devaluing people of color-whether they reside
within the nation's borders or are seeking entry into the United
States. Next, the collection evaluates the collateral costs
attached to the ongoing campaign to reduce regulations that protect
consumers, workers, and the environment. Likewise, the valuing
America's narrow self-interests may also have effects
internationally, where crime and violence may be tied to Trump's
promotion of White nationalism, toleration of human rights
violations, and denial of climate change. Lastly, criminal justice
policies are examined, both in the early stages of Trump's
presidency, which were marked by his get-tough rhetoric, along with
the more recent support for the First Step Act. The authors
represent different perspectives in the
discipline-critical/feminist and mainstream criminologists,
quantitative and qualitative scholars, and students of both street
and white-collar crime. Taken together, this book reflects a
variety of criminological voices and advances immeasurably our
understanding of the Trump administration's influence on crime and
justice in America. The chapters in this book were originally
published as a special issue of Victims & Offenders: An
International Journal of Evidence-based Research, Policy, and
Practice.
