Explore the groundbreaking text, 'Feminism and Criminology,' a pivotal resource that delves into the intersection of feminist thought and criminology. This insightful book, authored by Fiona Naffine, offers a compelling analysis of how feminist theory has reshaped our understanding of crime, criminal behavior, and the justice system. In just 208 pages, it traces the evolution of criminology from its scientific roots to its recent engagements with postmodern perspectives. Naffine's critical examination challenges the traditional male-centric views of criminology and embarks on a vital discussion regarding the treatment of women in crime, both as offenders and victims.

Feminism and Criminology delves into integral themes such as the influence of gender, class, and race on crime and victimization. Naffine presents a nuanced view of how societal expectations regarding masculinity and femininity impact criminal behavior and the legal responses to such behavior. The book also investigates the implications of rape and sexual relations, urging a reevaluation of their understanding within feminist discourse. Additionally, the incorporation of feminist detective fiction serves to invigorate the study of crime, providing an innovative lens through which to examine societal issues.

This essential book is a must-read for students and researchers in women's studies, gender studies, sociology, criminology, and law, and is perfect for those interested in exploring feminist contributions to criminology.

Description:


This much-needed book is a concise and accessible account of the contribution of feminist thinking to the study of crime. Tracing the intellectual history of criminology from its scientific foundations in the nineteenth century to its recent encounters with postmodernism, Naffine discusses the ways in which the discipline has established its priorities and values, and shows how men became and remain the central interest of the discipline. Criminologists, she argues, are still reluctant to engage with feminist scholarship which questions their agenda.


Naffine argues that for several decades feminists from a variety of disciplines have been studying crime, producing increasingly refined and sophisticated understandings of the phenomenon. Their interests have ranged widely, from the effects of masculinity and femininity on the propensity to offend, to the ways in which class and race affect the gender dimension of crime. They have pursued difficult questions about the nature of knowledge and the meanings of human behaviour in men and women.


Naffine analyses the treatment of women offenders by the criminal justice system, and women as victims of crime - especially violent crime - and argues for a different understanding of sexual relations between men and women within the crime of rape. Finally, she examines how feminist detective fiction can enliven and enhance the study of crime.


Provocative and well-argued, this timely book will be welcomed by students and researchers in women's studies, gender studies, criminology, sociology and law.

Quality product
Color: Blue
Great toy but the holes are very large for the snacks so they fall out easily. I have a toy poodle and it was to large for her, it seems like it is made of good quality materials and would be great for chewers .

No match for 3 month old puppy!
Color: Blue
I was really hopeful this would last a while, but 5 minutes out of the box and my 3 month old puppy has chewed two chunks out of the blue part already - seems this is too soft for puppy teeth, and it specifically claims to be good for puppy teething. 5 minutes of play is not worth paying for. Maybe if the material had been more substantial, this could have been great for high activity level puppies. My pup had no trouble carrying it around, so it wasn't too heavy, and it was easy to play fetch with as well. For reference, my pup is a mixed breed - labrador, poodle, newfoundland.

Best ever dog toy
Color: Pink
This is such the clever toy and actually I think it makes my pup more clever too. The ball is tough enough to withstand excessive chewing. I really can’t say enough good things about this particular dog toy. This will keep my dogs attention for such a long period of time and you can truly just watch the wheels turning in his head as he figures out how to get the food out would buy again and I probably will just to have a back up.
