If criminology is to have any relevance in the era of globalization, it must more directly address the vitally important issues of state crime and international social control. Dawn Rothe and Chris Mullins have made an outstanding contribution to this project with their incisive and critical analysis of the International Criminal Court.
- Ron Kramer, Western Michigan University,
It is a very readable and well-written introduction to the question of what international criiminal justice is after all about....The authors also provide a refreshing look into the American criminological community's soul when it comes to the attitude of the current US administration and the population in general.
International Criminal Law Review
The chapters, ideas, and information presented in them appear to logically flow from one idea to the next.

Critical Perspectives on Crime and Inequality presents cutting edge work informed by these schools of thought: feminism, peacemaking criminol-ogy, left realism, Marxism, cultural criminology, and postmodernism. In an age of instrumental reason and increasing state control, the need for critical and independent analysis of power and social arrangements has never been more acute. Books published in this series will be mono-graphs for scholars and researchers, as well as texts for course use.
