Description

Dangerous Offenders: Punishment and Social Order provides a deep look into why the figure of the dangerous offender causes such collective anxiety in modern Western societies. Published by Routledge, this controversial book challenges existing ideas about crime and social threat.

The text examines attempts to predict dangerous behavior and investigates why specific groups, including women, remain at risk from violent crime.
