Synopsis
Capitalism and Criminal Justice examines how state and economic forces work together through a dialectic process in efforts to prepare social and cultural capital for economic accumulation. This unique book demonstrates the close working relationship between the state and market by focusing on two recent trends: the emergence of the Ultimate Fighting Championship (cage-fighting) and the use of performance enhancing drugs (PEDs). These trends are examined as illustrative of the state/market nexus in sanctioning and criminalizing transgressive behaviors. The books aims to both deepen criminology’s understanding of the criminalization/legalization process, and introduce a genre of theoretical work not often employed in a grounded manner – criminology scholarship. Sociological, criminological―and particularly cultural criminological―scholarship has generally overlooked the ways in which state authority vindicates, legitimizes, and criminalizes various transgressive activities depending on their market potential. Traditional research addressing formal mechanisms of control frequently note that the state attempts to distinguish what the market wishes to celebrate. As a result, most of the literature assumes a type of oppositional dichotomy between the state and market.

Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Softcover. Condition: Good. 5. Civil Liability in Criminal Justice, Fourth Edition, aims to provide a better understanding of the civil liability process, in response to the increasing number lawsuits filed against criminal justice agencies and personnel. The nature of civil litigation requires students and practitioners to have a working knowledge of both criminal law and the civil law process.The book examines trends in police civil lawsuits; liability principles; and civil liability under both state and federal tort theories. It explains the legal concepts of immunities and defenses, and ways to reduce liability exposure through risk management. It discusses issues such as supervisory liability; failure-to-train claims; police misconduct and prisoner abuse; and the use of force by law enforcement and correctional personnel. The decisions of the United States Supreme Court and lower courts are used to illustrate how different cases have been applied to police and correctional situations.The book was written for college students, academy recruits, veteran practitioners, administrators, and agency trainers. It can serve as a stand-alone text for a legal course or a supplement to an administrative course. Due to increasing civil litigation against criminal justice agencies, students and practitioners not only need a working knowledge of criminal law but a firm grasp on the civil law process. Hundreds of cases are referenced throughout the text. Seller Inventory # SONG1422461394
