Blamestorming, Blamemongers and Scapegoats: Allocating Blame in the Criminal Justice Process
Autor Gavin Dingwall, Tim Hillieren Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 iul 2016
We live in a society that is increasingly preoccupied with allocating blame: when something goes wrong, someone must be to blame. Bringing together philosophical, psychological, and sociological accounts of blame, this is the first detailed study of blame to approach the phenomenon from a criminological perspective. Gavin Dingwall and Tim Hillier present a novel take on the legal process of blame attribution, set in the context of criminalization as a social and political process. This timely and topical book will be essential reading for anyone working or researching in the criminal justice field and will also be of wider interest to anyone wishing to understand the growing role of blame in modern society.

Recenzii
“Blame, and its relation to criminalization, have been neglected in criminal justice studies. Drawing on legal philosophy, this book puts them firmly under the spotlight of a thorough multidisciplinary interrogation.”
“Raises more questions than it answers . . . in scoping a relatively new area of inquiry. It is a very welcome addition.”
“A much-needed critical review of the role and parameters of ‘blame’ within criminal regulation. Accessibly written and insightful in its analyses throughout, this book compels a reevaluation of our attributions and tactics of blaming in twenty-first-century criminal justice policy.”
