Explore the groundbreaking text, 'Feminism and Criminology,' a pivotal resource that delves into the intersection of feminist thought and criminology. This insightful book, authored by Fiona Naffine, offers a compelling analysis of how feminist theory has reshaped our understanding of crime, criminal behavior, and the justice system. In just 208 pages, it traces the evolution of criminology from its scientific roots to its recent engagements with postmodern perspectives. Naffine's critical examination challenges the traditional male-centric views of criminology and embarks on a vital discussion regarding the treatment of women in crime, both as offenders and victims.Feminism and Criminology delves into integral themes such as the influence of gender, class, and race on crime and victimization. Naffine presents a nuanced view of how societal expectations regarding masculinity and femininity impact criminal behavior and the legal responses to such behavior. The book also investigates the implications of rape and sexual relations, urging a reevaluation of their understanding within feminist discourse. Additionally, the incorporation of feminist detective fiction serves to invigorate the study of crime, providing an innovative lens through which to examine societal issues.
This essential book is a must-read for students and researchers in women's studies, gender studies, sociology, criminology, and law, and is perfect for those interested in exploring feminist contributions to criminology.

Description:
This much-needed book is a concise and accessible account of the contribution of feminist thinking to the study of crime. Tracing the intellectual history of criminology from its scientific foundations in the nineteenth century to its recent encounters with postmodernism, Naffine discusses the ways in which the discipline has established its priorities and values, and shows how men became and remain the central interest of the discipline. Criminologists, she argues, are still reluctant to engage with feminist scholarship which questions their agenda.
Naffine argues that for several decades feminists from a variety of disciplines have been studying crime, producing increasingly refined and sophisticated understandings of the phenomenon. Their interests have ranged widely, from the effects of masculinity and femininity on the propensity to offend, to the ways in which class and race affect the gender dimension of crime. They have pursued difficult questions about the nature of knowledge and the meanings of human behaviour in men and women.
Naffine analyses the treatment of women offenders by the criminal justice system, and women as victims of crime - especially violent crime - and argues for a different understanding of sexual relations between men and women within the crime of rape. Finally, she examines how feminist detective fiction can enliven and enhance the study of crime.
Provocative and well-argued, this timely book will be welcomed by students and researchers in women's studies, gender studies, criminology, sociology and law.

As Advertised
Size: 19inch
The product seems well constructed and rolls easily when wheels are unlocked, even with full weight. Had windy conditions recently and the umbrella was held steady.

Seems like a good product, could use a couple improvements...
Size: 19inch
Product seems fine so far, and the adjustable size for the pole is good. Areas for improvement are a larger fill valve so you could fill sand with something other than a teaspoon. Also would have been better if all four wheels had locks and not just two.

Great toy!
Color: Grass Green, Size: Medium
We have a boxer and pit mix and he destroys everything. This toy however lasted the longest. He played with this every day and he plays very rough. But after 3 months I finally threw it out. It was still in tact but it was about to start falling apart. I will definitely buy another one.
