PERSPECTIVES ON CRIME, LAW AND JUSTICE IN THE GLOBAL SOUTH
Series editors: Prof Kerry Carrington and Prof Mximo Sozzo
Scholarly perspectives on crime, law and justice have generally been sourced from a select number of countries from the Global North, whose journals, conferences, publishers and universities dominate the intellectual landscape. As a consequence, research about these matters in the Global South has tended to uncritically reproduce concepts and arguments developed in the Global North to understand local problems and processes. In recent times, there have been substantial efforts to undo this colonized way of thinking leading to a burgeoning body of new work. Southern theories, subaltern knowledges and border epistemologies are challenging the social science to open up new ways of thinking about society, crime, law and justice.
This book series aims to publish and promote innovative new scholarship with a long term view of enhancing cognitive justice and democratising the production of knowledge. Topics of interest from the perspective of the global south include - environmental and ecological plunder; gendered violence; religion, war and terror; drug wars; the historical and contemporary legacies of slavery; the contemporary legacies of injustice arising from dispossession and colonisation; systems of punishment and forms of customary or transitional justice; human rights abuses and struggles for justice - all of which threaten the security of peoples who inhabit the global south.
