Opis

Captures an interest in the value of existentialist thought and concepts for criminological work on crime, deviance, crime control, and criminal justice. This book covers a range of topics that lend themselves quite naturally to existentialist analysis - crime and deviance as becoming and will, and the existential openness of symbolic exchange.
