Victims of Crime

Více o knize

Focusing on the evolution of victim support policies in England and Wales, this volume examines the heightened cultural significance of victimization since 2010, influenced by terrorism, sexual violence, and child exploitation issues. It introduces the concept of 'victim capital' and employs cultural victimology, governance theory, and legal scholarship to explore the motivations and effects of contemporary victim policy. This engaging study appeals to victimology scholars, criminal justice experts, activists, and policymakers seeking to understand these critical developments.
