商品描述
This book examines the rise of financial totalitarianism and its profound implications for criminal justice and criminological theory. It explores how the concentration of wealth and social exclusion, driven by corporate CEOs, has altered the role of politics in shaping criminal justice systems. The text argues that these shifts have given rise to a dystopian criminology, marked by a focus on total security, extreme prevention, zero tolerance policies, and pervasive surveillance. It critically assesses how these developments contribute to the criminalization of dissent, foster societal fears of outsiders, and institutionalize ethnic and cultural discrimination, all while maintaining a façade of administrative control. Drawing on historical and contemporary analysis, the book offers a framework for rethinking criminology in the context of financial and political power, advocating for a more critical approach to understanding crime, punishment, and justice in an increasingly unequal world.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書探討了金融極權主義的興起及其對刑事司法和犯罪學理論的深遠影響。它探討了由企業首席執行官推動的財富集中和社會排斥如何改變政治在塑造刑事司法系統中的角色。文本主張這些變化催生了一種反烏托邦的犯罪學，特徵是對全面安全的關注、極端預防、零容忍政策和無所不在的監控。它批判性地評估了這些發展如何促進異議的犯罪化、加劇社會對外來者的恐懼，並使種族和文化歧視制度化，同時維持行政控制的表象。通過歷史和當代分析，本書提供了一個重新思考犯罪學的框架，將其置於金融和政治權力的背景下，倡導對於在日益不平等的世界中理解犯罪、懲罰和正義的更具批判性的方式。
