Climate Change Criminology
Rob White (School of Sociology and Social Work, University of Tasmania, Australia.)
Leading green criminologist Rob White asks what can be learned from the problem-solving focus of crime prevention to help face the challenges of climate change in this call to arms for criminology and criminologists.
Industries such as energy, food and tourism and the systematic destruction of the environment through global capitalism are scrutinised for their contribution to global warming. Ideas of state-corporate crime and ecocide are introduced and explored in this concise overview of criminological writings on climate change. This sound and robust application of theoretical concepts to this new area also includes commentary on topical issues such as the US withdrawal from the Paris Climate agreement.
