Recenzii
"This collection of essays is a valuable resource for scholars seeking orientation in the emerging field of green criminology and its various sub-fields. Environmental Crime and Social Conflict encourages much-needed research applying established criminological theory with existing research traditionally dominated by conservationists, political scientists, and human rights organizations." - Sara McFann, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books, May 2016
’Very capably edited by Brisman (Eastern Kentucky Univ.), South (Essex Univ., UK), and White (Univ. of Tasmania), this collection is an excellent addition to the blossoming literature on green criminology. ... The contributors come from around the world; many of the chapters are state of the art. ... All the chapters are well written in relatively jargon-free language. This is without doubt an important collection. It deserves a wide audience. Summing Up: Essential. All levels/libraries.’ Choice
'This book attempts to move beyond the common characterisations of the links between environment and conflict that centre on the idea of environmental security or the resource curse. It uses a green criminology frame to examine a range of up-to-the-minute cases and to develop a new typology for understanding the dynamics involved. The range of authors, cases and arguments add up to a gripping read that links, for example, poaching, extractive industries, hydro politics and piracy.' Rosaleen Duffy, SOAS, University of London, UK
’Many discussions regarding the degradation and exploitation of the world’s resources tend to neglect the surrounding socio-political and economic environment where such activities occur. This volume presents a much needed critical examination on the link between environmental crime and social conflict and provides an important foundation for future scholars.’ William D. Moreto, University of Central Florida, USA

Descriere
This collection of original essays stimulates new understandings of the relationships between humans and nature through critical evaluation of environmental destruction and degradation associated with social conflicts occurring around the world. The chapters are largely informed by green criminology perspectives and provide a systematic and comprehensive introduction to a topic that to date has received little attention within criminology.
