Justice is one of the most debated and reinterpreted of concepts
within the fields of law, criminology and criminal justice.
Bringing together 35 leading thinkers, analysts and campaigners
from around the world, this collection presents a range of on-going
struggles for justice from abolitionist, transitional,
transformative, indigenous, green and restorative perspectives.
Against a background of contemporary concerns about dark money,
plutocracies and populism, these chapters raise questions about the
relationships between social justice and criminal justice and
between democracy, knowledge and justice. Overall, the chapters
also demonstrate the breadth, variety and vibrancy of contemporary
criminology and include, amongst other cutting-edge contributions,
chapters by John Braithwaite, Michelle Brown, Ian Loader, Pat
O'Malley, Joe Sim, Susanne Karstedt, Phil Scraton, Richard Sparks,
Loic Wacquant and Sandra Walklate. Justice Alternatives is
essential reading for students of criminology, criminal justice and
law, as well as for other scholars and activists concerned about
social justice, policing, courts, imprisonment, mass supervision,
rights and privatized justice. The book's emphasis upon the
importance of imagination, experimentation, innovation and debate
aims to promote an optimism that there are always alternatives to
inequality, domination and oppression.
