Description

Explore a deep academic critique of the moral panic paradigm with this Routledge publication. This study offers a forensic, historical, and theoretical examination of how societal panics are understood. Using empirically grounded ethnographic research, the text argues that the current panic paradigm contains fundamental flaws, suggesting it functions more as a myth than a viable academic perspective. Written by Bill Thompson, a sociologist and former Practicing Associate of the British Academy of Experts, this book brings high-level expertise to the field of criminology. Thompson's background includes teaching at Cambridge, Essex, and Reading Universities, providing a scholarly foundation for this investigation into sex, snuff, and Satanic panics. This work is an essential resource for students and professionals studying anthropology, sociology, and the social sciences.
