Exploring the issues from a global and transnational perspective, this book equips readers with insights for understanding interconnections involving the psycho-social, political, economic, and cultural conflicts that underlie both criminality and associated control responses. Drawing on decades of research and personal engagement working within the domain of criminology, James Sheptycki develops an innovative perspective on the history of the present that sheds light on contemporary global concerns and emergent possibilities for future inquiry. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book's chronological structure follows Sheptycki's intellectual journey, making a self-reflective narrative about his adventures in criminology into a scholarly resource that sheds light on its evolution. Each chapter explores key phenomena—such as domestic violence, serial killers, drug criminalization, transnational organized crime, gun-crime and ecocide—revealing how conflict, power and control shape them. Engaging with issues from the local to the transnational, and drawing on insights from philosophy, history, sociology, and media studies, Sheptycki positions criminality as a symptom of deeper societal contradictions. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA reinvigoration of thinking about the enduring role of power and conflict in shaping crime and criminology for the twenty-first century, \u003ci\u003eConflict, Crime and Criminology: An Interdisciplinary Approach:\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eIntegrates theories from philosophy, sociology, psychology, political economy, and cultural studies\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eProvides in-depth case studies, for example concerning gun crime in Toronto, corruption in British Columbia and transnational police assistance in Haiti\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEngages with emergent topics such as ecocide, human rights-based criminology, and the digital transformation of law enforcement\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eDevelops a theoretical model for understanding transnational organized crime and elite corruption\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCritiques cultural and media constructions of serial killers and public disorder\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eCritically engages with feminist, Green, Southern, anti-racist, anti-colonial, left-realist, ultra-realist and conservative theoretical perspectives in criminology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eAddresses the post-democratic drift to authoritarianism characteristic of liquid modernity\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eConflict, Crime and Criminology: An Interdisciplinary Approach\u003c\/i\u003e is a thought-provoking book for teaching and learning in undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral-level courses in criminology, sociology, law, socio-legal studies, governance and politics, particularly for those concerned with globalization and the world system.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJAMES SHEPTYCKI\u003c\/b\u003e is Professor Emeritus at York University, Toronto, Canada.
