"""His collection inclues contributions from leading scholars covering a diverse range of criminological issues including organisec crime, international finance, terrorism, migration and genocide. The collection draws out some of the contradictions and conflicts inherent in globalisation. In particular, the collection is premised upon the basis that globalised practices have not swept aside all that has gone before but instead they co-exist alongside and intersect with deeply held local practices and cultures. The book... provides a useful overview of some key areas.""—Dr Jamie Bennett, Prison Service Journal"
