A collection of writings by Dr David Scott which build on his work teaching criminology for over 20 years.

Provides a compelling analysis of the failings of imprisonment. Sheds new light on this pressing topic. Explains why prisons do not work for most offenders. From the Foreword ‘Scott systematically dismantles wide...

Política criminal y libertad
Este libro es el producto de las investigaciones realizadas durante el año 2013, que se socializaron en el Congreso Internacional de Política Criminal y Libertad, en donde se discutieron diferentes posturas hacia el “delito” y las diversas reacciones frente a él. La primera parte del libro la hemos denominado “Hacia la desprisionalizacion”, en ella se encontrará: una crítica a la penalidad y al castigo, elementos de una racionalidad neoliberal, y a los sujetos que se comportan como empresarios; una confrontación de lo normativo con la realidad de la justicia penal y penitenciaria, mostrando el incumplimiento de las funciones declaradas de la pena; la búsqueda de verdaderas alt...

Enjaulados: Escolha Punitiva Brasileira e Perspectivas Desencarceradoras
Este livro da jovem professora Tamires Maria Alves vem incorporar-se ao esforço acadêmico coletivo que tenta construir um dique de contenção da barbárie em nosso país. Ao realizar a crítica profunda da prisão, e mais especificamente da prisão no Brasil contemporâneo, ela nos revela as entranhas desse sistema perverso mas também aponta caminhos para sua superação. Ao abandonar as "ilusões re", aquelas que insistem em atribuir ao cárcere funções pedagógicas, a autora projeta sua análise para além dos paradoxos de seu objeto, demarcando possibilidades de outros futuros. Nessa perspectiva ela nos ajuda a "desatar" alguns nós presentes em categorias, métodos e conceitos que ...

Anti-Security
Security has reached an analytic blockage. The more security seems post-political, post-social, or even post-modern the more it escapes analytic scrutiny. The more security attaches itself to innumerable social relationships the more it becomes the very glue that binds social reality. Social problems become security problems while projects of pacification continue to be legitimized under the rubric of security. To be against security today is to stand against the entire global economic system. If security has become the dominant, perhaps impenetrable concept of our times, then we must start entertaining the impossible. We must begin asking: what would doing anti-security look like? Also cont...
The Radical Durkheim
The Radical Durkheim provides an imaginative re-examination of the sociologist's work. A Poststructuralist Marxist approach is used to engage and criticize this seminal figure's work and also to reatin, develop and modify Durkheim's conceptualizations. By his willingness to pay careful attention to the different discourses and chains of meaning that lie embedded in, and traverse Durkheim's texts, the author provides both an important account of a major theorist and an illustration of the excitement of a creative engagement with theory.
