Crime is often perceived as an urban issue rather than a problem
that occurs in rural areas, but how far is this view tenable? This
book explores the relationship between crime and community in rural
areas and addresses the notion of safety as part of the community
dynamics in such areas. Rural Crime and Community Safety makes a
significant contribution to crime science and integrates a range of
theories to understand patterns of crime and perceived safety in
rural contexts. Based on a wealth of original research, Ceccato
combines spatial methods with qualitative analysis to examine, in
detail, farm and wildlife crime, youth related crimes and gendered
violence in rural settings. Making the most of the expanding field
of Criminology and of the growing professional inquiry into crime
and crime prevention in rural areas; rural development; and the
social sustainability of rural areas, this book builds a bridge by
connecting Criminology and Human Geography. This book will be
suitable for academics, students and practitioners in the fields of
criminology, community safety, rural studies, rural development and
gender studies.
