It spans the micro to the macro from individual-level environmental crimes and victimization to business/corporate violations and state transgressions. There have been few attempts, however, to explicitly or implicitly integrate cultural criminology into green criminology (or vice versa).
This book moves towards articulating a green cultural criminological perspective....

An interdisciplinary study, this collection draws on research from a wide range of...

Largely informed by green criminology perspectives, the chapters in the book are intended to stimulate new understandings of the relationships between humans and...
