The use of intersectionality theory in the social sciences has
proliferated in the past several years, putting forward the
argument that the interconnected identities of individuals, and the
way these identities are perceived and responded to by others, must
be a necessary part of any analysis. Fundamentally,
intersectionality claims that not only are people's lived
experiences affected by their racial identity and by their gender
identity, but that these identities, and others, continually
operate together and affect each other. With "official" statistical
data that indicate people of Color have higher offending and
victimization rates than White people, and with the
overrepresentation of men and people of Color in the criminal legal
system, new theories are required that address these phenomena and
that are devoid of stereotypical or debasing underpinnings.
Intersectionality and Criminology provides a comprehensive review
of the need for, and use of, intersectionality in the study of
crime, criminality, and the criminal legal system. This is
essential reading for academics and students researching and
studying in the fields of crime, criminal justice, theoretical
criminology, and gender, race, and socioeconomic class.
