New Horizons in Criminology
Series Editor: Andrew Millie, The Open University, UK
New Horizons in Criminology provides concise authoritative texts in criminology which reflect cutting edge thought and theoretical development with an international scope. Divided into eight chapters, these short accessible texts are written so that the non-specialist academic, student or practitioner can understand them by explaining principles and developments clearly before going deeper into the subject.
Written by leading authors in their fields, the series is essential reading for all those interested in where criminology is heading.
Indigenous Criminology
Indigenous Criminology comprehensively explores Indigenous people’s contact with criminal justice systems in a contemporary and historical context. It addresses both the theoretical underpinnings of the development of a specific Indigenous criminology, and canvasses the broader policy and practice implications for criminal justice.
Sports Criminology
A Critical Criminology of Sport and Games
This is the first book to provide a critical criminological perspective on sport and the connections between sport and crime. Part of the New Horizons in Criminology series, it draws on the inter-disciplinary nature of criminology and incorporates emerging perspectives like social harm, gender and sexuality, and green criminology.
Island Criminology
Ten percent of the world’s population lives on islands, but until now the place and space characteristics of islands in criminological theory have not been deeply considered. This book addresses issues of how, and by whom, crime is defined in island settings, informed by the distinctive social structures of their communities.
