Description
(Text)
This book seeks to examine crime in the Kingston Metropolitan Area (KMA), Jamaica, as a reaction to social exclusion, a condition in which a large segment of the society is shut out from the systems which determine their level of social integration in the society. Its interdisciplinary nature, drawing from the authors experience in both geography and sociology provides a unique perspective in which a spatial element is added to the traditional discourse on social exclusion. This will give the reader special insight into the manner in which young men in poor communities in the KMA are isolated from mainstream society and the role that this plays in the construction of 'alternative' careers.
