Disease And Crime (Routledge Studies In Cultural History)

This work investigates, across different pathological sites, the shifting assumptions that have informed debates about where 'crime' is located, what factors produce it, and how it is managed. The book considers how and why disease -- and, in particular, infectious disease -- has come, reciprocally, to be framed as 'criminal.'
