Description

This comprehensive academic study provides a forensic, historical, and theoretical critique of the moral panic paradigm through empirically grounded ethnographic research. The author argues that the panic paradigm suffers from fundamental flaws that undermine its viability as an academic perspective. Written by Bill Thompson, a UK-based sociologist with extensive teaching experience at Cambridge, Essex, and Reading Universities, this work challenges conventional assumptions about how societies respond to perceived social threats. The book combines rigorous scholarly analysis with empirical evidence to deconstruct widely accepted theories about moral panics involving sex, violence, and satanism. Part of the Routledge Advances in Criminology series, this volume offers readers a critical re-examination of a paradigm that has significantly influenced criminology, sociology, and social policy discussions for decades.
