The first comprehensive collection of its kind, this handbook
addresses the problem of knowledge production in criminology,
redressing the global imbalance with an original focus on the
Global South. Issues of vital criminological research and policy
significance abound in the Global South, with important
implications for South/North relations as well as global security
and justice. In a world of high speed communication technologies
and fluid national borders, empire building has shifted from
colonising territories to colonising knowledge. The authors of this
volume question whose voices, experiences, and theories are
reflected in the discipline, and argue that diversity of discourse
is more important now than ever before. Approaching the subject
from a range of historical, theoretical, and social perspectives,
this collection promotes the Global South not only as a space for
the production of knowledge, but crucially, as a source of
innovative research and theory on crime and justice. Wide-ranging
in scope and authoritative in theory, this study will appeal to
scholars, activists, policy-makers, and students from a wide range
of social science disciplines from both the Global North and South,
including criminal justice, human rights, and penology.
