Feminist Theory, Crime, and Social Justice
Feminist Theory, Crime, and Social Justice offers an insightful look at the primarily masculine-driven perspective on crime and justice through the lens of feminist theory.

Findings document a rise in the number of PPUs, an escalation in their level of activity, a normalization of these units into m…
