Description
Der erste Band "Großstadtängste - Anxious Cities" beinhaltet Texte, die sicherheits- und kriminalpolitische Trends sehr unterschiedlicher Städte Europas in den Mittelpunkt stellen. Gegenstand der Untersuchungen sind die vielschichtigen Ängste im städtischen Leben zu Beginn des 21. Jahrhunderts.
From the outset, urban sociology has had a tremendous influence on criminology. Studying the city has even been among the very first things 'criminologists' did. This urban sociological approach, central to the first part of this book, is maintained in the second part. Here the focus is more on the wider socio-economic and political developments that form the context of safety policies.
