Produktbeschreibung
The work of Stanley Cohen over four decades has come to acquire a classical status in the fields of criminology, sociology, and human rights. His writing, research, teaching, and practical engagement in these fields have been rigorously analytical and intellectually inspiring. It amounts to a unique contribution, immensely varied yet with several unifying themes, having made and continuing to make a lasting impact around the world. His work thus has a protean character and scope which transcend time and place. This book of essays in Stanley Cohen's honor builds upon and reflects some of his many-sided contributions. Crime, Social Control and Human Rights with the Forward by Noam Chomsky contains chapters by some of the world's leading thinkers as well as the rising generation of scholars and practitioners whose approach has been shaped in significant respects by Stanley Cohen. The book examines the main themes Stanley Cohen has explored and developed.
