内容紹介
The book , written by an expert in the field of political crime, provides the most comprehensive up to date discussion of the phenomenon of political crime. Jeffrey Ian Ross develops a new theory of political crime by reviewing the definition, concept and the preponderant `cause and effect' of different types of political crime.
It is primarily focused on the political crime that has taken place in the past three decades in the United Kingdom, United States and Canada. This book is accessible and easy to read, it covers oppositional crimes such as sedition, treason, and espionage as well as political corruption, illegal surveillance, and human rights violations. It will be a useful for students and academics in criminology, political science, social policy and public administration.
レビュー
"This book is not only an excellent and up-to-date review of the literature on political crime, but it also builds on the strengths of previous research in developing an interdisciplinary explanation that implicates individuals, situations, organizations, and resource adequacies. The book is a well-informed, balanced, and compelling presentation of traditional and contemporary theoretical concerns that confront directly the interaction between antisystemic crime and state crime. This book is a superb engagement that finally moves crime research well beyond its ethnocentric borders toward a more inclusionary framework of comparative thought." (Livy Visano 20060824)
"Ross's book will likely provide hours of discussion and opportunities for students and readers to deconstruct the text and to ascribe meaning to it." (Christopher A. Simon 20070604)

Political crime and various ways to control it
2003/3/10
By Midwest Book Review
- (Amazon.com)
形式:ペーパーバック
Written by an experienced criminologist Jeffrey Ian Ross (Assistant Professor, Division of Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Social Policy, Center for Comparative and International law, University of Baltimore, Maryland), The Dynamics Of Political Crime is an extensive look at the concept of political crime and various ways to control it. Studying both violent and nonviolent political crime including corruption, illegal domestic surveillance, human rights violation, bribery and more, The Dynamics Of Political Crime is an involved and informative account which is especially recommended for Criminology and Political Science reference collections and supplemental reading lists.

Useful at the high school level? Hardly!

I found Jeffrey's Ian Ross' book very useful for my own research dealing with criminal regimes in Latin America, notably the Fujimori dictatorship of Peru, which I examined in a recent work. I use Ross' book when dealing with state crime in my criminology classes. I also regularly recommend the work to the gradute students from International Development Studies whom I supervise on state crime in developing societies. While Ross' book is ethnocentric his assumptions can easily be modified to analyze political crime beyond the so-called First World. I would therefore strongly disagree with the claim by a previous reviewer that the book is at best useful at the high school level. My major criticism would be that the author does not sufficiently distinguish between administrative and political corruption.

Very Elementary

形式:ハードカバー|Amazon.co.jpで購入済み
I had to read this book for a graduate level course and was quite disappointed. I felt that the book was quite elementary and really should not be used at the college level at all. It is very superficial, lacking the analysis needed at higher levels. Additionally, the book is only about 200 pages yet covers a wide variety of issues in political crime, resulting in a vague descriptions and explanations. The book is also ethnocentric. Ross seems to favor Western cultures making false claims such as "It is clear that although human rights violations are rare occurrences in the Anglo American democracies, they take place at alarming rates throughout the world in countries that have totalitarian or authoritarian regimes," (Ross 122). I guess he forgot about the treatment of various minority groups in the U.S. Overall, the book is probably good for the high school level or as a supplement to other books at a college level, but this book should not be that primary text for any college student to receive their information in political crime.
The paperback copy of this book is only about $15, so don't pay big money for the hard cover!!!
