This book is divided into five parts that each highlight a key aspect of visual criminology, exploring the diversity of methods, techniques and theoretical approaches currently shaping the field:
- Part I introduces formative positions in the developments of visual criminology and explores the different disciplines that have contributed to analysing images.
- Part II explores visual representations of crime across film, graphic art, documentary, police photography, press coverage, and graffiti and urban aesthetics.
- Part III discusses the relationship of visual criminology to criminal justice institutions like policing, punishment, and law.
- Part IV focuses on the distinctive ethical problems posed by the image, reflecting on the historical development, theoretical disputes and methodological issues involved.
- Part V identifies new frameworks and emergent perspectives, and reflects upon the distinctive challenges and limits that can be seen in this emerging field.
This book includes a vibrant colour plate section and over a hundred black and white images, breaking down the barriers between original photography and artwork, historic paintings and illustrations, and modern comics and films. This interdisciplinary book will be of interest to criminologists, sociologists, visual ethnographers, art historians and those engaged with media studies.
