The criminological contributions of Richard Quinney have spanned
four decades and have spawned and energized both critical and
peacemaking intellectual and activist movements in the field of
Criminology. Quinney has been consistently recognized as one of a
small handful of seminal thinkers in the discipline. The
introduction illustrates how each chapter: has drawn inspiration
from the crime-related writings of this influential criminologist;
contains core assumptions of critical and peacemaking criminology;
has application for the development of transformative justice as an
alternative approach to the study of crime. Part 1 features
chapters generally falling within the parameters of critical
criminology. Here, critical analyses are directed toward: linkages
of capitalism and political economy to crime; state/corporate
crime; feminist concerns about moral conscience; views of crime and
justice among convict criminologists; prison as an industrial
complex. Part 2 exhibits chapters oriented toward the development
of peacemaking criminology. As such, peacemaking criminology is
explored in regard to: an emergent theoretical model; a synthesis
of Quinney's peacemaking-oriented writings; women's crime and
mothers in prisons; teaching and learning about justice through a
non-violent perspective; advocating justice reforms on the
internet; its future directions in terms of theory and application.
