This collection draws from key frameworks of criminological thought, legal analysis and empirical evidence to critically examine the relationship between homicide, gender and responsibility. It considers lethal violence committed by the state, the corporation, in war and in custody alongside domestic murder to demonstrate the interconnections between them.
