Welcome to the Criminology and Criminal Justice Catalogue 2012

We are delighted to welcome you to the Criminology Catalogue 2012. There was a fascinating article on the radical overhaul of Operations Trident by the Metropolitan Police, which was posted as a link on the Routledge Twitter page (@Routledge_Crim). This has become a great place to keep up to date both with criminology and all of the latest books and offers from Routledge.

We have a fantastic year ahead of publishing in criminology both in the UK and US at Routledge. As well as a brand new edition of Peter Joyce’s Criminal Justice textbook later in the year, we have a major new Handbook in Surveillance Studies edited by Kirstie Ball, Kevin Haggerty and David Lyon and some fantastic additions to the Key Ideas in Criminology series, including Claire Renzetti’s long awaited Feminist Criminology. We are also very excited about our new titles, Voices from Criminal Justice, When Crime Appears, and A Theory of African American Offending.

We are particularly thrilled this year about commissioning new titles for a brand new
series we are launching. New Directions in Critical Criminology is edited by Walter DeKeseredy and aims to offer short original contributions to a major contemporary issue of central concern to critical criminologists around the world and set out an agenda for progressive ways of thinking critically about crime, law, and social control (please contact Tom Sutton for more details).

It is a constant pleasure to work with such a fantastic bunch of authors and series editors. As always, we’d be happy to hear from you if you had a new idea for a book or any feedback about the list in general.
