The author argues that criminology has been marginalized from the post-9\/11 discourse of power and, in turn, has excluded genocide from its field of study. The book reveals how this discipline props up the notion of \"civilized space\" in Western nations, concealing its dependence on imperial projects and historical massacres. An invitation to reflect on the role of criminology in the face of major crimes against humanity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book examines the relationship between modern criminology and the construction of truth in the context of globalization. Morrison analyzes how criminological discourse has served to structure \"civilized space\"—the realm of consumption, financial reward, and internal order in Western nation-states—while silencing its link to imperial projects and genocides. The work contrasts the media and political treatment of 9\/11 with the systematic exclusion of genocide from criminological analysis. Through an exploration of the Holocaust and other great massacres, the author questions where criminology was when these crimes occurred, inviting an unflinching reflection on the \"civilizing process\" and its cost in human lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain Themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eCritique of modern criminology as a discourse of power.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eRelationship between civilization, genocide, and world order.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eAnalysis of the impact of September 11 on criminological discourse.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical exclusion of genocide from the field of criminology.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eImperialism and colonial projects as the foundation of the Western \"civilized space.\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReflection on the Holocaust and other massacres as part of modern progress.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at students and professionals in criminology, sociology, political science, and criminal law who are interested in a critical and unconventional perspective of their discipline.

Morrison combines erudition with a critical gaze that connects genocide, imperialism, and the post-9\/11 global order. His approach will be especially valuable for those seeking a more complex and politicized understanding of the discipline, far removed from conventional textbooks. A book that invites us to rethink the role of the social sciences in the face of structural violence and state crimes.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"ANTHROPOS EDITORIAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53409995293019,"sku":"9788415260448","price":23.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1018\/0650\/6331\/files\/978841526044.jpg?v=1781899697","url":"https:\/\/kalamobooks.com\/en\/products\/9788415260448","provider":"Kalamo Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
