Reviews

'...This book is the first to offer an introduction to the important topic of resisting state crime. Taking on an unexplored topic within the state crime literature, this edited volume should be considered a required foundational text for all those, students and scholars alike, wanting to better understand the dynamics between state and resistance.'- Victoria E. Collins, PhD. Assistant Professor, School of Justice Studies, Eastern Kentucky University
