Description: Cultural Criminology and the Carnival of Crime, Paperback by Presdee, Mike, ISBN 0415239109, ISBN-13 9780415239103, Brand New, Free shipping in the US Presdee (sociology and social policy, Sunderland University and University of Kent) attempts to make sense of the culture of crime, arguing that an over-organized economic world has provoked a widespread desire for extreme, oppositional forms of popular and personal pleasure. This desire has resulted in a cathartic "second life" of illicit pleasures often deemed criminal by those in power. Presdee concludes that in order to truly make sense of senseless acts, it is essential for criminologists to turn to cultural criminology and that, as successive governments take steps to further rationalize public life, they will continue to create crime rather than alleviate it.
