4.9/5 (26074 ratings)

Description:The Routledge Handbook of Africana Criminologies plugs a gaping hole in criminological literature, which remains dominated by work on Europe and settler-colonial locations at the expense of neo-colonial locations and at a huge cost to the discipline that remains relatively underdeveloped.It is well known that criminology is thriving in Europe and settler-colonial locations while people of African descent remain marginalized in the discipline. This Handbook therefore defines and explores this field within criminology, moving away from the colonialist approach of offering administrative criminology about policing, courts and prisons, and making a case for decolonizing the wider discipline. Arranged in five parts, it outlines Africana Criminologies, maps its emergence and addresses key themes such as slavery, colonialism and apartheid as crimes against humanity; critiques of imperialist reason; Africana cultural criminology; and theories of law enforcement and Africana people. Coalescing a diverse range of voices from Africa and the diaspora, the handbook explores outside Eurocentric canons in order to learn from the experiences, struggles and contributions of people of African descent.Offering innovative ways of theorizing and explaining the criminological crises that face Africa and the entire world with the view of contributing to a more humane world, this ground-breaking handbook is essential reading for criminologists and sociologists world-wide, as well as scholars of Africana studies and African studies.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
