Full Description
This reference focuses on the key issues addressed by feminists in their engagement with criminology over the past four decades. Exploring women`s lives as "errant females," this volume maps out the connections between the choices women make and their environment as linked to the wider socio-political context and considers feminist strategies used to address the conditions inside women`s prisons, defend criminalized women`s human rights, and draw attention to the systemic abuses against poor and racialized women.
