Title: | Reimagining Rural Criminology in a Time of Change | Contributor(s): | Bowden, Matt (author); Harkness, Alistair (author) | Publication Date: | 2022-07-29 | DOI: | 10.51952/9781529217773.ch001 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/53777 | Abstract: | The shape of rural communities depends greatly on what is practised everyday by rural people. In addition to everyday life, rural areas are structured by the actions of states, by the economy and technology - and so we must regard the rural as a distinct socio-spatiality. Moreover, the rural is connected to and shaped by local and global forces that organise both in and beyond its boundaries. The rural therefore intersects with economy, environment and politics at the macro level, but also with gender, class and ethnicity and with struggles for power, resources and identity that shapes its cohesion and (in)security. This chapter is structured in three parts. First, it reflects upon the rural as a socio-spatial nexus comprised of rural practices and shaped by the external world and the state. Here, the chapter reflects further on the shared space between rural and green criminology with reference to the Anthropocene. Second, it considers some of the ways in which the rural and rural people are represented in popular discourse. It contemplates some of these themes through the lens of rural criminology. Third, the chapter provides an overview of the various contributions in this book. | Publication Type: | Book Chapter | Source of Publication: | Rural Transformations and Rural Crime: International Critical Perspectives in Rural Criminology, p. 1-14 | Publisher: | Bristol University Press | Place of Publication: | Bristol, United Kingdom | ISBN: | 9781529217766 9781529217773 9781529217759 |
