An Introduction to Political Crime de Jeffrey Ian Ross

An Introduction to Political Crime

Autor Jeffrey Ian Ross
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 26 apr 2012
Jeffrey Ian Ross here provides a comprehensive analysis of political crime, addressing violent and nonviolent crimes committed by and against the state—including political corruption, illegal domestic surveillance, and human rights violations—in the United States and other industrialized democracies since the 1960s. He explores various aspects of the issue, including its causes, ways to control it, and the effects of different types of political crime. Integrating new scholarship on state crime in the wake of 9/11, Ross uses numerous examples to help readers understand this complex issue.

Recenzii

“Traditionally, scholars of criminology and political science have had little to say to each other. This immensely valuable book succeeds admirably in bridging these disciplinary silos. Focusing on the intersection of crime and politics, it is a wonderfully accessible work that will appeal to students, teachers, and other readers alike.”--Peter Grabosky, Australian National University

“Jeffrey Ross's book on the politics of crime and the crimes of politics is a most welcome text for the undergraduate student. It treats this most challenging and important of topics in a systematic, balanced, and clearly presented fashion.”--Gary T. Marx, Massachusetts Institute of Technology
