Description

This book explores the complex relationship between crime and security, providing a comprehensive overview of the latest research and theoretical developments in this field. It brings together leading scholars from around the world to examine the ways in which crime and security are interconnected, and how they shape each other.

The book is divided into four parts. The first part, 'Conceptualising Crime and Security', explores the different ways in which crime and security have been conceptualised, and how these conceptualisations have shaped policy and practice. The second part, 'Crime and Security in Context', examines the ways in which crime and security are shaped by different social, economic, and political contexts. The third part, 'Crime and Security Governance', examines the different ways in which crime and security are governed, and how these governance mechanisms impact on crime and security outcomes. The fourth part, 'Crime and Security Futures', explores the future of crime and security, and how we can best prepare for the challenges that lie ahead.

This book is an essential resource for students and scholars of criminology, criminal justice, and penology. It is also of interest to policymakers and practitioners working in the field of crime and security.
