Recenzii

An Introduction to Green Criminology and Environmental Justice represents a thoughtful and valuable addition to what is now the growing corpus of introductory texts in this developing and vitally important field of study. Nurse covers the main issues in green criminology in a well written and brief introductory chapter. He then continues to address a number of varied but extremely interesting and pertinent issues that I think will greatly interest students as well as those working in regulatory and policy areas, academics, or indeed readers in general. Nurse combines an introductory scoping of what green criminology is with a broad interdisciplinary perspective on how masculinities contribute to environmental criminality, how animal rights and animal abuse can and should be re-thought from a (green) criminological perspective, as well as an examination of the socio-cultural significance of climate change denial, along with other chapters on biopiracy, corporate and white collar offending, and the problem of pollution and trade in waste. This book is highlighted by a concentration on the positive aspects of regulation and the role of extra-legal judicial agencies and actors as providing important and positive solutions to the issues and problems brought to light by green criminologists, a very significant perspective given what can be the neutralising and sometimes depressing nature of these types of crimes and criminality. A very highly recommended text.'
 

SAGE Publications has published this attractive little book on green criminology at a very reasonable price and at a level of law that can be understood by almost everybody... This book, packed full of strands of criminological trends, is a really good introduction to this vast subject.

Descriere

Taking a strong criminological focus by firmly situating environmental harm within the context of criminal justice, and with chapters on areas including species justice, the green movement and investigating environmental harm, this book provides students with a pedagogically rich introduction (with chapter objectives, self-study questions, plenty of case studies, and overview of relevant cases) that will engage them and encourage critical thought
