"La migración de adolescentes y jóvenes no acompañados/das en Europa empieza a ser detectada a mediados de la década de los noventa. El número de llegadas anuales ha experimentado un crecimiento constante, convirtiéndose en un fenómeno estructural que demanda ajustes y respuestas en los sistemas de protección regionales y estatales para proteger el interés superior del menor, como interpela la CDN de 1989.

Criminology and Democratic Politics brings together a range of international leading experts to consider the relationship between criminology and democratic politics. How does criminology relate to democratic politics? What has been the impact of criminology on crime and justice? How can we make sense of the uses, non-uses, and abuses of criminology? Such questions are far from new, but in recent times they have moved to the centre of debate in criminology in different parts of the world. The chapters in Criminology and Democratic Politics aim to contribute to this global debate. Chapters cover a range of themes such as punishment, knowledge, and penal politics; crime, fear, and the media; democratic politics and the uses of criminological knowledge; and the public role of criminology. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, and politics and all those interested in how criminology relates to democratic politics in modern times.
