A Political Analysis of Deviance: New Edition - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Facing more terrorism, war and unending conflicts over what is deviant, it may be time again to listen to the powerful voices in A Political Analysis of Deviance. The messages reveal the importance of studying deviance and diversity as politics, and how we might transcend the current debate over freedom fighters versus terrorists. The first edition of this book, published in 1980, was the model for understanding who and what controls the moral boundaries separating good from bad. In the new foreword, Pat Lauderdale raises questions about the current usefulness of the model. The chapters in the book examine political life and its relationship to the study of deviance that often are ignored or suffocated before they become public. Now, we must ask innovative questions about our moral judgments and our fate as we move into this new century.
