This book critically explores the development of radical
criminological thought through the social, political and cultural
history of three periods in Ancient Greece: the Classical, the
Hellenistic and the Greco-Roman periods. It follows on from the
previous volume which examined concepts of law, legitimacy, crime,
justice and deviance through a range of Ancient Greek works
including epic and lyrical poetry, drama and philosophy, across
different chapters. This book examines the three centuries that
followed which were very important for the history of radical
thinking about crime and law. It explores the socio-political
struggles and how ruptures produced breaks in knowledge production
and developed the field of deviance and social control. It also
examines the key literature, religions and philosophers of each
period. The gap between social consensus and social conflict
deepened during this time and influenced the theoretical discourse
on crime. These elements continue to exist in the theoretical
quests of the modern age of criminology. This book examines the
links between the origins of radical criminology and its future. It
speaks to those interested in the (pre)history of criminology and
the historical production of criminological knowledge.
