The introductory chapter to The Palgrave Handbook of Criminology and the Global South, 2nd Edition, has just been published. You can access it by clicking on the link below.
This gargantuan second volume contains 86 chapters organised into eight themes and features contributions from both emerging and established scholars from around the globe.
The handbook aims to substantially transform the discipline of criminology by making it more inclusive of the experiences and viewpoints of those in the global peripheries.
The contributions develop theories from the margins, where crime and violence significantly impact vulnerable populations.
The handbook advocates diverse perspectives to develop concepts, methods, and theories that bridge global divides and enhance the decolonisation and democratisation of knowledge, thereby making it more relevant to twenty-first-century global criminology.
