Description

Explore the complex relationship between crime and public perception with Inventing Fear of Crime: Criminology and the Politics of Anxiety. Published by Routledge, this work examines how the fear of crime has evolved into a major concern for criminologists, victimologists, and policy makers over the last forty years. As reducing fear becomes a priority for police, the media, and politicians, this book investigates why actual levels of fear remain difficult to lower despite massive research and political debate. It provides an essential look at how anxiety functions as a serious policy problem in modern society. Whether you are a student of social sciences or a professional in the field, this text offers deep insights into the intellectual debates surrounding crime and public sentiment.
