Social Dominance: An Intergroup Theory of Social Hierarchy and Oppression

The article offers a descriptive analysis of strategies of crime control in contemporary Britain and elsewhere. It argues that the normality of high crime rates and the limitations of criminal justice agencies have created a new predicament for governments. The response to this predicament has been recurring ambivalence that helps explain the volatile and contradictory character of recent crime control policy. The article identifies adaptive strategies (responsibilization, defining deviance down, and redefining organizational success) and strategies of denial (the punitive sovereign response), as well as the different criminologies that accompany them.

The literature on fear of crime has grown rapidly in the last three decades. This paper examines the reasons for this growth and attempts to put some structure on the work to date. The inadequacies of measures of fear of crime are discussed and alternative approaches suggested. Alternative explanatory theories are compared and strategies for reducing fear reviewed.

Law, order, and power

This chapter aims to provide an analysis of the law of vagrancy in Anglo-American Law. The innovation in the law was a direct result of the aforementioned changes which had occurred in the social setting. There is general agreement among legal scholars that the first full fledged vagrancy statute was passed in England in 1349. The commercial emphasis in England at the turn of the sixteenth century is of particular importance in the development of vagrancy laws. The possibility of criminal activities resulting from persons who refuse to labour was recognized even in the earliest statute. It is significant that the statute now makes persons who repeat the crime of vagrancy a felon. The focal concern of the vagrancy statutes becomes a concern for the control of felons and is no longer primarily concerned with the movement of labourers.

Policing the Ghetto Underclass: The Politics of Law and Law Enforcement

Eight promising young of good, stable, white upper-middle-class families, active in school affairs, good were some of the most delinquent boys at Hanibal High School. While community residents and parents knew that these boys occasionally sowed a few wild they were totally unaware that sowing wild oats completely occupied the daily routine of these young men. The Saints were constantly occupied with truancy, drinking, wild driving, petty theft and vandalism. Yet not one was officially arrested for any misdeed during the two years I observed them. This record was particularly surprising in light of my observations during the same two years of another gang of Hanibal High School students, six lower-class white boys known as the Roughnecks. The Roughnecks were constantly in trouble with police and community even though their rate of delinquency was about equal with that of the Saints. What was the cause of this disparity? The result? The following consideration of the activities, social class and community perceptions of both gangs may provide some answers.
