Description
Leading green criminologist Rob White asks what can be learned from the problem-solving focus of crime prevention to help face the challenges of climate change in this call to arms for criminology and criminologists.
Industries such as energy, food, and tourism, and the systematic destruction of the environment through global capitalism are scrutinised for their contribution to global warming. Ideas of state-corporate crime and ecocide are introduced and explored in this concise overview of criminological writings on climate change. This sound and robust application of theoretical concepts to this "new" area also includes commentary on topical issues such as the US withdrawal from the Paris Climate agreement.
Part of the New Horizons in Criminology series, which draws on the inter-disciplinary nature of criminology and incorporates emerging perspectives like social harm, gender and sexuality, and green criminology.
