FORMATPaperback CONDITIONBrand New Publisher Description

Featuring contributions from scholars from across the globe, Routledge Handbook of Public Criminologies is a comprehensive resource that addresses the challenges related to public conversations around crime and policy. In an era of fake news, misguided rhetoric about immigrants and refugees, and efforts to toughen criminal laws, criminologists seeking to engage publicly around crime and policy arguably face an uphill battle. This handbook outlines the foundations of and developments in public criminology, underscoring the need to not only understand earlier ideas and debates, but also how scholars pursue public-facing work through various approaches. The first of its kind, this collection captures diverse and critical perspectives on the practices and challenges of actually doing public criminology.The book presents real-world examples that help readers better understand the nature of public criminological work, as well as the structural and institutional barriers and enablers of engaging wider audiences. Contributors address policies around crime and crime control, media landscapes, and changing political dynamics. In examining attempts to bridge the gaps between scholarship, activism, and outreach, the essays featured here capture important tensions related to inequality and social difference, including the ways in which criminology can be complicit in perpetuating inequitable practices and structures, and how public criminology aims—but sometimes fails—to address them.The depth and breadth of material in the book will appeal to a wide range of academics, students, and practitioners. It is an important resource for early career researchers, more established scholars, and professionals, with accessible content that can also be used in upper-level undergraduate classes.Chapter 5 of this book is freely available as a downloadable Open Access PDF at under a Creative Commons Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND) 4.0 license.

The chapters and authors are well-chosen, providing concrete examples and inspiring big-picture visions. The Routledge Handbook of Public Criminologies is an invaluable compendium and reference for students, scholars, and practitioners. – Christopher Uggen, University of Minnesota, and Michelle Inderbitzin, Oregon State UniversityFoundational knowledge of public criminology coupled with critical perspectives on its practice makes this an essential handbook for changemakers desiring to make their criminological learning relevant in the real world. – Sheetal Ranjan, Professor of Sociology & Criminal Justice, William Paterson UniversityWith this wide-ranging and involving book, the debate on public criminologies has decisively moved on. Kathryn Henne and Rita Shah have assembled a richly varied set of contributions. These essays address the question of criminology's public roles from a wide and challenging range of positions, places, and perspectives. A debate that threatened to become repetitious and introspective has again turned outwards and become more open and more contemporary. – Richard Sparks, University of Edinburgh, and Ian Loader, University of Oxford, Authors of Public Criminology (Routledge, 2011)
