Beschreibung

In a thought-provoking exploration of the interplay between legal systems and capitalist frameworks, this book delves into the complexities of crime control within society. The authors challenge conventional perceptions, highlighting how law enforcement practices often reflect the interests of those in power, rather than serving justice or public safety. By scrutinizing the foundations of legal order, they reveal a narrative shaped by economic inequalities and social disparities.

Shelden and Quinney articulate how the legal system can perpetuate crime rather than eliminate it. They present a compelling analysis of the ways in which laws are constructed not only to regulate behavior but also to maintain existing hierarchies within capitalist society. Through a critical lens, they examine the broader implications of policies and practices that prioritize control over rehabilitation.

This work engenders a deeper understanding of the socio-economic determinants of crime, urging readers to question the status quo. The authors call for a reimagining of justice that moves beyond punitive measures, advocating for solutions that address systemic issues. With its enduring relevance, the book serves as both a critique and a catalyst for change in the dialogue surrounding law, crime, and society.
