In this book, Vincenzo Ruggiero offers a typology of different
forms of political violence. From systemic and institutional
violence, to the behaviour of crowds, to armed conflict and
terrorism, Ruggiero draws on a range of perspectives from
criminology, social theory, political science, critical legal
studies and literary criticism to consider how these forms of
violence are linked in an interdependent field of forces. Ruggiero
argues that systemic violence encourages more institutional
violence, which in turn weakens the ability of citizens to set up
political agendas for change. He advocates for a reduction of all
types of violence, which can be enacted through fairer distribution
of resources and the provision of political space for contention
and negotiation. This book will be of interest to all those engaged
in research on violence, terrorism, armed conflict and the crimes
of the powerful. It makes an important contribution to
criminological and social theory.
