Cybercrime and Digital Deviance is a work that combines insights
from sociology, criminology, and computer science to explore
cybercrimes such as hacking and romance scams, along with forms of
cyberdeviance such as pornography addiction, trolling, and flaming.
Other issues are explored including cybercrime investigations,
organized cybercrime, the use of algorithms in policing,
cybervictimization, and the theories used to explain cybercrime.
Graham and Smith make a conceptual distinction between a
terrestrial, physical environment and a single digital environment
produced through networked computers. Conceptualizing the online
space as a distinct environment for social interaction links this
text with assumptions made in the fields of urban sociology or
rural criminology. Students in sociology and criminology will have
a familiar entry point for understanding what may appear to be a
technologically complex course of study. The authors organize all
forms of cybercrime and cyberdeviance by applying a typology
developed by David Wall: cybertrespass, cyberdeception,
cyberviolence, and cyberpornography. This typology is simple enough
for students just beginning their inquiry into cybercrime. Because
it is based on legal categories of trespassing, fraud, violent
crimes against persons, and moral transgressions it provides a
solid foundation for deeper study. Taken together, Graham and
Smith's application of a digital environment and Wall's cybercrime
typology makes this an ideal upper level text for students in
sociology and criminal justice. It is also an ideal introductory
text for students within the emerging disciplines of cybercrime and
cybersecurity.
