Each chapter celebrates and commemorates his work by analysing, evaluating and critiquing the current nature and impact of victim identity, experience, policy and practice. The collection expands the focus and remit of ‘victim studies’, addressing key themes around race, gender, faith, ability and age while encompassing new and diverse issues. Examples include sex workers as victims of hate crimes, victims’ experiences of online fraud, and recognising historic child sexual abuse victims in Ireland. With contributions from an array of academics including Vicky Heap (Sheffield Hallam University), Hannah Mason-Bish (University of Sussex) and Pamela Davies (Northumbria University), as well as a Foreword by David Scott (The Open University), this book evaluates the contemporary relevance and applicability of Christie’s ‘Ideal Victim’ concept and creates an important platform for thinking differently about victimhood in the 21st century.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmContributor: Jennifer Sloan (Contributions by), Caroline Yoko Furusho (Contributions by), Antony Pemberton (Contributions by), Alice Bosma (Contributions by), Jorge Gracia (Contributions by), Claire Cohen (Contributions by), Cassandra Cross (Contributions by), Hannah Bows (Contributions by), Vicky Heap (Contributions by), Stephanie Fohring (Contributions by), Pamela Davies (Contributions by), Sinead Ring (Contributions by), Karen Corteen (Contributions by), Rebecca Barnes (Contributions by), Catherine Donovan (Contributions by), Irene Zempi (Contributions by), Hannah Mason-Bish (Contributions by), Eva Mulder (Contributions by), Nils Christie (Contributions by), Marian Duggan (Edited by)Genre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesAuthor: Jorge GraciaRelease Year: 2018 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
