PAN-AFRICAN ISSUES IN CRIME AND JUSTICE; ED. BY ANITA KALUNTA-CRUMPTON

the long version

"Drawing upon materials from countries in Africa, the Caribbean, North and South America, and Europe, this book reflects on the experiences of people of African descent to offer a convergence of criminologies in and outside the West. Simultaneously, it acknowledges Western criminology as a significant angle from which to comprehend crime and justice as they are conceptualized outside the West. The volume also investigates whether Western criminological accounts are relevant to the comprehension of crime, criminality and systems of justice in Africa, the Caribbean and South America."--BOOK JACKET.
