Ground-breaking. Whatever your focus - trafficking and slavery, policing, sentencing, cyber-crime, interpersonal or state violence- this book will change how you understand and interrogate technology and its role in crime and justice. This book isn't about the future, it's about the now, and what will follow. It is rigorous, insightful and exciting. It is essential reading for scholars, students and the general community: we need to take up the challenge offered by this book.
Associate Professor Marie Segrave, Monash University, Australia
In "Crime and Punishment in the Future Internet" Sanja Milivojevic invites us to look into the future and actively engage with digital frontier technologies that, as she skilfully shows, bring risks as well as possibilities into our lives. It as a brave and, above all, imaginative book that opens important debates about the nature of crime and punishment that even techno-sceptics and techno-phobes among us can no longer ignore. It made me think- it still does - and this is all one can ask of a book.
Professor Katja Franko, University of Oslo, Norway
Crime and Punishment in the Future Internet is a remarkable achievement, distilling complex technological concepts and criminological debates into a concise, accessible and highly thought-provoking text.
