T. J. Coles, Capitalism and Coronavirus
In the opening pages of Capitalism and Coronavirus, author T. J. Coles sets out two key goals.The first is to document causal linkages between the search for capital accumulation, in Cole's terms "enrichment of the few," and the many and complex ways this search has increased levels of morbidity, mortality, and social disruption due to COVID-19 (SARS-COV-2).The second is to consider why the most extreme capitalist countries in the world, accordin…

This article develops an interdisciplinary, relational approach to political power as a theoretical framework for analyzing how grassroots immigration activists interact with and influence elites responsible for constructing immigration policy. We illuminate this theoretical approach with examples from ethnographic field research with pro- and anti-immigration grassroots activists in southern Arizona to show how competing narrative frames about t…

Guest Editor’s Introduction
K. Lasslett, State Crime on the Margins of Empire
Social Class and Crime
The relationship between social class and crime has long been a source of contention among criminologists. Many of the early criminological theories were founded on the unquestioned belief that people in the lower classes were more prone to criminal behavior than are those who are economically better off. While today this assumption is not as universally accepted, it still has many proponents. This entry examines the link between social class and…
A Call for Further Research on the Impact of State-Level Immigration Policies on Public Health
Arizona’s Support Our Law Enforcement and Safe Neighborhoods Act, signed into law in April 2010, is already adversely affecting public health in the state. Our findings from a study on childhood obesity in Flagstaff suggest that the law changed health-seeking behaviors of residents of a predominantly Latino neighborhood by increasing fear, limiting residents’ mobility, and diminishing trust of officials. These changes could exacerbate barriers to…

War, Aggression and State Crime
In this article, we argue that the 2003 US/UK invasion and occupation of Iraq was a form of state crime and offer a criminological analysis of the event. First, we describe how the war on Iraq violated the UN Charter and international humanitarian law. Then, we provide a narrative analysis of the historical and contemporary origins of this crime through the lens of an integrated model for the study of organizational deviance that has proved usefu…

The Origins and Development of the Concept and Theory of State-Corporate Crime
The important contributions made by Richard Quinney to the study of corporate crime and the sociology of law, crime, and justice have influenced the development of the concept of state-corporate crime. This concept has been advanced to examine how corporations and governments intersect to produce social harm. State-corporate crime is defined as criminal acts that occur when one or more institutions of political governance pursue a goal in direct …
Bodies, Borders, and Sex Tourism in a Globalized World
Globalization has stimulated an increase in the movement of bodies across borders as the poor migrate in search of work or safety, and the rich travel the globe as tourists in ever-larger numbers. This article explores how these global forces shape the production and consumption of sex tourism in two very different cities, Amsterdam and Havana. By combining political-economic, feminist, and postmodern theoretical perspectives with global ethnogra…
Unemployment, Imprisonment, and Social Structures of Accumulation
This study explores the relationship between punishment and social structure by combining the work of Rusche and Kirchheimer with current theorizing regarding social structures of accumulation (SSAs). Specifically, we theorize that the unemployment‐imprisonment (U‐I) relationship is historically contingent. In particular, we argue that qualitative changes in the configuration of labor markets, state strategies for managing surplus populations, an…

Between Citizens and the Socialist State
In 1973 the Cuban government abolished the private practice of law, replacing it with a system of law collectives known as bufetes colectivos. These law collectives were designed to provide low-cost legal services to the public in ways consistent with the ideology of a nonadversarial relationship between lawyers and the state. I examine both the relationship between the ideological and legal bases for the socialist practice of law in Cuba and the…

Border Militarization and Migrant Suffering
Prologue CANDLES GUTTERED IN THE BREEZE. IN THE BACKGROUND, PALE RIBBONS DRAPED the aging adobe walls of El Tiradito, a small folk shrine in Tucson s historic barrio district. As the setting sun painted March storm clouds red and orange, 15 people formed a semicircle facing the shrine, each holding a small sheet of white paper. Most of the faces were Anglo; a few were Latino or Indian. After a brief invocation, a woman read the name written on th…

The Social Meanings of Violent Death
While death is an absolute, the social responses to it demonstrate considerable variation. This variation exists because it is not only the death itself, but the manner of dying which determines the social meaning of any death. This paper investigates the differential responses to various forms of violent death, and attempts to identify those factors which influence the social meanings of violent death. Focusing upon the dimensions of inevitabili…
