Radical Criminology 4, (Paperback)

Radical Criminology, edited by Jeff Shantz [Kwantlen Polytechnic University, Vancouver, British Columbia], is dedicated to bridging the gap between the academy and the global activist community, especially with regard to state violence, state-corporate crime, the growth of surveillance regimes, and the prison-industrial complex. More pointedly, the journal aims to be not simply a project of critique, but is also geared toward a praxis of struggle, insurgence, and practical resistance. Issue 4 (Autumn 2014) is a special issue on "Public Criminology" edited by Justin Piché.TABLE OF CONTENTS: EDITORIAL / Jeff Shantz, "Going Forth" -- FEATURES: PUBLIC CRIMINOLOGY / Justin Piché, "Critical Reflections on 'Public Criminology': An Introduction" -- Andrew Woolford & Bryan Hogeveen, "Public Criminology in the Cold City: Engagement and Possibility" -- Carrie B.
