<p>"Architecture is a product of both structure and culture – two aspects that have been badly neglected in the desistance discussion to date. This fascinating collection of some of the most important voices in the desistance literature may represent the redemption the field needs in this regard. Very exciting work!"</p><p>Shadd Maruna, Professor of Criminology, Queen’s University Belfast, UK </p><p>"The Architecture of Desistance sheds valuable light on the social forces impacting offending and desistance from crime. Collectively, the contributors challenge traditional perspectives on desistance to more directly<strong> </strong>consider cultural, historical, institutional, and systematic factors that influence the process of desisting. This timely contribution will enhance the field's cross-national understanding of desistance."</p><p><strong><em>Bianca Bersani, Associate Professor of Sociology, University of Massachusetts, USA</em></strong></p>
