Description
This book provides insights not only into issues of criminology but also criminal justice issues that are generally not at the forefront of Caribbean scholarship, for example, remand detention and the Caribbean Court of Justice. This book focusses on intersectionality, justice, and vulnerable populations whereas volume I focusses on crime, crime trends, and criminal justice reform. Using a diverse approach, and tackling topics including food fraud, human trafficking, gender-based and domestic violence, climate change, and agro-terrorism, these books fill an existing lacuna in the context of specific issues plaguing Caribbean criminological and justice landscapes in the region.
