Crime and the Punished (The Society Pages)

An essential introduction to how sociologists think about and research crime and punishment.
The second volume in this series tackles crime and punishment. As in the first volume, the chapters are organized into three main sections. â€œCore Contributionsâ€ exemplifies how sociologists and other social scientists think about otherwise familiar phenomena like crime, incarceration, and suicide. Chapters in the â€œCultural Contextsâ€ section engage crime in cultural realmsâ€•from politics to families to international crime and justiceâ€•that are often ignored or taken for granted among laypeople or in other social science disciplines. Finally, the â€œCritical Takesâ€ chapters provide sociological commentary, perspective, and reflections on crime and its control.
