Description

Explore the complex relationships between criminal behavior and social structures in Crime, Inequality and Power by Routledge. This book offers a unique comparative approach that challenges standard definitions of what constitutes a crime and who is labeled a criminal. Through detailed analysis, Eileen Leonard examines various forms of criminal behavior within the United States, ranging from violence and sexual assault to theft and drug law violations. By looking at the parallels between different types of offenses, this work provides a fresh perspective on justice. Leonard places familiar street crimes, such as car theft, side-by-side with large-scale corporate theft. This comparison highlights the deep inequalities in how society defines and responds to different types of illegal acts. It is an essential read for those interested in anthropology, sociology, and the legal social sciences, providing a lens to view how power shapes our understanding of law and order.
