Reviews

It brings together key important aspects of professions-scapegoating, disciplinary practices and trust. <br>-Dr. Toni Makkai of Department of Sociology, University of Salford <br> The argument, that inside the structures of modern rational-legal authority (the courts, the legislature) there exists a premodern form of social control in which groups pursue retribution (rather than restitution) is innovative, insightful and well rehearsed. It is an important challenge to the myth of 'modernity'. <br>-Dr. Kevin White of Department of Sociology, Australian National University <br> The issue addressed is universal, very current, indeed, so hot [as] to be glowing in the dark. <br>-Professor Gary D. Bouma of Department of Anthropology and Sociology, Monash University <br>
