Elgar Advanced Introductions series

Rob White, Emeritus Distinguished Professor of Criminology, School of Social Sciences, University of Tasmania, Australia

亿旺资讯公司的ed Introduction to Applied Green Criminology provides a comprehensive overview of interventions and practices that contribute to environmental protection. Topics include crime prevention, environmental regulation and law enforcement, environmental forensics, greening of criminal justice institutions, and social activism. Underpinning these topics is the notion of eco-justice, which focuses on environmental justice (humans), ecological justice (ecosystems) and species justice (non-human animals and plants).

‘Advanced Introduction to Applied Green Criminology is a valuable synthesis of theoretical and philosophical underpinnings with practical approaches and applications. Distinguished Professor Rob White has expertly combined decades of research into a useful text that collates the diverse attempts to prevent and disrupt environmental crime. Furthermore, he offers insights to both academics and practitioners into other elements to consider when tackling environmental crimes and harms. A must read for anyone working in the field of the environment.’
– Tanya Wyatt, Northumbria University, UK

‘Reducing environmental harms is a universal human interest. Again, White offers wayfinding for those of us searching for deeper understanding of why and how green criminology can help smooth the science-to-action interface. He paints a vivid picture of the diversity of environmental harms and the tools criminology offers for positive and just change.’
