Includes bibliographical references.
v. 1. The meaning of crime -- v. 2. The causes of crime -- v. 3. Radical and critical criminologies.
Volume 1 introduces key issues in the meaning and constitution of "crime". While in volume 2, it brings together some of the major criminological paradigms which have attempted to discover the causes of crime. Lastly, volume 3 explores how the theoretical perspectives of interactionism and labeling, Marxism, feminist criminologies and critical criminologies shifted the object of criminological enquiry away from explanations of why a "pathological few" break moral and legal codes, and towards an analysis of how processes of law creation and enforcement are implicated in the construction of particular and partial perceptions of crime and the criminal.
