Reviews
Val Marie Johnson, Saint Mary’s University:
[This book] seeks to critique the current state of scholarship and policy making in criminology and law, with a particular concern for how crime is produced as an object of regulation and punishment. These are crucial questions for Canadian scholars, policy makers, and citizens.
