✦ Synopsis

Climate change is arguably the most important issue of the contemporary era, with ramifications reaching beyond the purely ecological and into the realms of politics and economics. Rob White's new book takes a unique perspective on this topic by providing a concise yet critical overview of the criminological writings on climate change. Climate Change Criminology contributes a distinctive analytical approach to the study of climate change by unpacking and exploring concepts such as ecocide, contrarianism and state-corporate crime. The book also delves into the implications of climate change with respect to harm, victimization, and accountability. Climate Change Criminology is a call to arms for citizens and criminologists alike to address the most pressing issue besetting humanity today. As White compellingly shows, the future is in our collective hands.
