The Biography of De-Realization on Criminal History, Culture and Politics
Psychological Jurisprudence as Deconstructionist Method: The Theory and Science of Virtue-Based Research
For nearly thirty years, the theory and science of Psychological Jurisprudence (PJ) have been used to address a range of complex and controversial issues in crime, law, and justice. As a matter of epistemological and ontological commitments, PJ’s research agenda is sourced in an Aristotelian-derived virtue ethic. This ethic advances eudemonic existence. This existence extolls human flourishing and excellence and it recognizes that these eudemonic…
The Pre-Crime Society: Crime, Culture and Control in the Ultramodern Age
The Pre-Crime Society: Crime, Culture and Control in the Ultramodern Age
We live in a pre-crime society. Within this society, information technology strategies and techniques such as predictive policing, actuarial justice and surveillance penology are used to achieve hyper-securitization. However, such securitization comes at a cost. In this new people-making society, the criminalisation of everyday life is guaranteed, justice functions as an algorithmic industry and punishment is administered through dataveillance re…

The Terrorist Identity: Explaining the Terrorist Threat
Who would strap a bomb to his chest, walk into a crowded subway station and blow himself up? Only by examining how a terrorist understands his own identity and actions can this question be answered. The authors of The Terrorist Identity explore how the notion of self-concept combined with membership in terrorist and extremist groups, can shape and sustain the identity of a terrorist as well as their subsequent justification for violence and the l…
The Dictionary of Critical Social Sciences
This book is a teaching dictionary with the goal of de-mystifying current social science theory in a comprehensive, accessible format. It focuses on important terminology in progressive, radical, critical Marxist, feminist, left-liberal, postmodern, and semiotic contexts
The Sage Encyclopedia of Surveillance, Security, and Privacy
Although surveillance hit the headlines with revelations by Edward Snowden that the NSA had been tracking phone calls worldwide, surveillance of citizens by their governments actually has been conducted for centuries. Only now, with the advent of modern technologies, it has exponentially evolved so that today you can barely step out your door without being watched or recorded in some way. In addition to the political and security surveillance unv…

Philosophical Criminology and Complex Systems Science: Towards a Critical Theory of Justice
Conflict Theory and Crime and Delinquency
Much of the sociological and criminological mainstream assumes that society is organized around and characterized by consensus; however, conflict theorists place the process of discord at the center of cultural, institutional, and organizational dynamics. While a number of theoretical variations have emerged from within the general conflict tradition, they share a few basic assumptions. First, conflict theorists assume that in more complex, indus…
Recommunalization of the disenfranchised: A theoretical and critical criminological inquiry
This article examines the eight-stage model of recommunalizing the homeless in a Single Room Occupancy (SRO) as developed by Arrigo and its theoretical grounding, based on principles derived from critical criminology. In particular, by retrospectively identifying how several key concepts emanating from peacemaking, anarchist and cultural criminology are illustrated by the SRO’s formation and operation, the article demonstrates where and how the d…

Reality-based television and police–citizen encounters: The intertextual construction and situated meaning of mental illness-as-punishment
Recent theoretical analyses concerning mental illness argue that persons labeled as such are punished first through discourse, subsequently legitimized, knowingly or not, through social effect. In this framework, punishment is an artifact of unconscious and symbolic forces whose structuration can be positionally, relationally and provisionally decoded through careful textual exegeses. Linked to several strains of postmodern inquiry, a number of a…

Theory, Justice, and Social Change: Theoretical Integrations and Critical Applications
"Theory, Justice, and Social Change: Theoretical Integration and Critical Applications represents a series of essays that systematically reviews or extends the role of critical social theory in fostering justice and change in several relevant, though problematic, social contexts. Mindful of the need to address both conceptual exegeses and pragmatic concerns, the articles contained in this volume grapple with the ongoing "double crisis" that confr…
Theorizing Non-Linear Communities: On Social Deviance and Housing the Homeless
Theories of deviance abound; however, little attention has been given to the construction and meaning of deviance in postmodern society. According to some theorists, one conceptual variant of postmodernism is chaology or non-linear dynamical systems theory. In this article, the relevance of chaos theory for advancing our understanding of social deviance is examined. In particular, such notions as non-linearity, fractal space, attractors, self-sim…
Justice and the deconstruction of psychological jurisprudence: The case of competency to stand trial
Critical psychological jurisprudence draws attention to the forces of ideology, power and violence embedded in the narratives of law and psychiatry, criminal justice and mental health. Application work in this area identifies how and for whom justice is served (or denied) by prevailing medicolegal decisions and practices. One method of discursive analysis comes from deconstruction. Indeed, as Derrida has proclaimed, ‘deconstruction is justice.’ T…

Anarchaos and Order: On the Emergence of Social Justice
In this article we explore aspects of anarchism and of chaos theory, suggesting that recent insights advanced by the latter shed new light on the former. The former conceptually explains the importance of natural order as a human process that questions and, ultimately, subverts the artifice of state-imposed authoritative order. The latter examines, both theoretically and empirically, the role of order, disorder, and `chaotic' social dynamics in t…

The 'Death Row Community: A Community Psychology Perspective
The extant literature on the death row process and its relationship to inmate execution is limited. One way to interpret the association is to examine those groups constituting the death row community. In this study, we argue for the existence of an execution community composed of several related membership groups: the prisoner awaiting death, the inmate's family, the correctional personnel working the unit, and the victim and the victim's loved …

Rooms for the Misbegotten: Social Design and Social Deviance
Housing strategies designed to create a sense of community for our nation's at-risk and poverty-stricken citizens continue to be a source of debate. One major issue is the degree to which criminal behavior exists within these environments. In this article, the results from a seven year study of one single room occupancy (SRO) facility in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania are described. Analysis of two models used for intervening with the vulnerable tenant…

Theories of Crime and Crimes of Theorists: On the Topological Construction of Criminological Reality
Social science scholarship is increasingly addressing the dynamics of gender, race and class in various institutional contexts. Criminological research is no exception to this trend. Within the criminological sciences, postmodern research is also gaining greater attention and respectability. Notwithstanding the discipline's recent emphasis on postmodernity and cultural plurality, little attention has been given to criminological theory and how th…
