"Beyond Criminology" is an innovative, groundbreaking critique of
the narrow focus of conventional criminology. The authors argue
that crime forms only a small and often insignificant amount of the
harm experienced by people. They show that, while custom and
tradition play an important role in the perpetuation of some types
of harm, many forms of harm are rooted in the inequalities and
social divisions systematically produced in -- and by --
contemporary states. Exploring a range of topics including
violence, indifference, corporate and state harms, murder,
children, asylum and immigration policies, sexuality and poverty,
the contributions raise a number of theoretical and methodological
issues associated with a social harm approach. Only once we have
identified the origins, scale and consequences of social harms,
they argue, can we begin to formulate possible responses -- and
these are more likely to be located in public and social policy
than in the criminal justice system. The book provides an original
and challenging new perspective that goes beyond criminology -- one
which will be of interest to students, teachers and policy makers.
Social justice is a contested term, incorporated into the language
of widely differing political positions. Those on the left argue
that it requires intervention from the state to ensure equality, at
least of opportunity; those on the right believe that it can be
underpinned by the economics of the market place with little or no
state intervention. To date, political philosophers have made
relatively few serious attempts to explain how a theory of social
justice translates into public policy. This important book, drawing
on international experience and a distinguished panel of political
philosophers and social scientists, addresses what the meaning of
social justice is, and how it translates into the everyday concerns
of public and social policy, in the context of both
multiculturalism and globalisation.
