Specifically, the book provides ways of thinking about the concept of ‘victim’ as: incorporeal, in that efforts to convert victim recognition into meaningful impact are often extremely difficult to realise; binary, in that the victim is defined and constructed in opposition to the figure of the offender; relational, in that its emergence is heavily influenced by interactions; and precarious, in that the category ‘victim’ is often time-limited and subject to ongoing scrutiny.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThese insights demonstrate that the social construction of victim status is fraught with frustration, resistance, and exclusion. Existing research and advocacy work has often followed the assumption that the solution to this is that more people need better access to the label ‘victim’. But what if there are fundamental flaws within the conceptual category of ‘victim’ itself? Accordingly, this book considers possibilities of moving beyond the category ‘victim’ and finding alternative approaches of acknowledging and responding to harm in meaningful ways.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will therefore be of interest to students and scholars of criminology and victimology. It will also be useful resource for professionals in policing, youth justice, and victim support.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":53143663902993,"sku":"NGR9781032956176","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":54066085462289,"sku":"NLS9781032956176","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/9781032956176.jpg?v=1786442407"},{"product_id":"leaf-collection-book-hannah-marshall-9781638042280","title":"Leaf Collection","description":"\u003cp\u003eThese poems present snapshots of forms we associate with nature - trees, seasons, birds, insects, mothers - but what makes it into each frame isn't really familiar. Plants, flowers, and leaves are not the still-life subject of odes, nor are they the setting for paradise but rather a universe unto themselves, wholly indifferent to human viewers. Readers may find they need to consult an illustrated guide to trees or reevaluate their attitude towards spiders. Leaf Collection cycles through the seasons and generations in search of any meaning to be made in a world where the human protagonist is not the star of the show but rather one word in a much longer sentence. The voice within these poems finds both blessing and cruelty in nature, salvation in decay.
