Decentering men from the field of criminology, this pathbreaking book brings to bear a sweeping body of contemporary intersectional feminist work to disrupt the entire discipline. Women have been largely absent from criminological theory, research, policy, and practice. This fresh, conversational book critiques the field's dominant theories before analyzing gendered patterns of perpetration and victimization, switching up traditional criminological perspectives on characteristics such as race and queerness. Designed as a rebuttal to traditional criminology textbooks, the book mirrors standard course content through a feminist intersectional lens, offering students a valuable opportunity to question the field's underpinnings and forge a new path to understanding the true meaning of justice.
Organized in fourteen chapters, each chapter includes
a review of the topics covered in traditional criminology textbooks for that topic,
critical perspectives on the topic,
critical thinking breaks, and
recommended additional reading.
Intersectional Feminist Criminology is a timely intervention and companion to the curriculum that helps to imagine a new world and ultimately lays out a clear abolitionist vision as an alternative to the American criminal legal system.
