The Palgrave Handbook of Social Harm – PDF

The Palgrave Handbook of Social Harm (PDF) delves into the concept of ‘harm’ in criminological studies and lays the groundwork for a future zemiological agenda. By introducing ‘social harm’ as a theoretical construct, it presents a wider lens through which to comprehend the root causes and remedies for extensive harm in the society, going beyond criminology and state-defined crimes and expanding the range of criminological research.

Drawing on zemiological concepts, this book provides a comprehensive examination of various topics including violence, workplace injuries, moral insensitivity, corporate and state harms, animal rights, poverty, security, migration, gender, and victimization. It covers theory, research, scholarship, and future outlook across four sections and encompasses contributions from areas such as sociology, criminology, socio-legal and cultural studies, social policy, and international relations. Readers will gain access to original theoretical perspectives and analysis of a broad range of issues from a ‘social harm’ perspective, all updated to present times.
