Over dit e-boek
This textbook is intended for undergraduate students in criminology, sociology, social justice and related disciplines. It is an integrated criminology/criminal justice textbook that presents critical perspectives on issues in the criminal justice system, while also providing an overview of key theoretical ideas in criminology, key research processes, and patterns and trends in crime in the Canadian context. The textbook is a thematic narrative that allows students to make connections between people and processes – individuals and society – and provides students with the critical skills they need to excel in fields related to social justice, criminal justice and beyond.
Over de auteur
Alicia Horton teaches courses in sociology and criminology in British Columbia, Canada. Her primary research and activist interests include prison culture, prison violence, prison education, research ethics, bodies and body as a resource. Her areas of theoretical expertise and interest include masculinities, social constructionism and social problems work. Dr Horton’s interest in questions of meaning, process and lived experience informs her reflexive, qualitative methodological practice. She is particularly interested in Canadian prisoners’ lived experiences with criminalization, prisoning and resistance.
Michael Young is a professor of justice studies at the School of Humanitarian Studies at Royal Roads University in Victoria, Canada. His research interests range from criminology and criminal justice to issues in social justice related to addictions, mental health, and homelessness. Dr Young emphasizes phenomenological approaches in research and believes that the solution to vexatious social problems can be better achieved through applied research. He includes community-based solutions in this research and is particularly interested in NIMBYism and societal reaction to policy and program developments to address social problems. He utilizes both quantitative and qualitative research methods in his research.
