C. Wright Mills and the Criminological Imagination

C. Wright Mills and the Criminological Imagination investigates the emergence and lineage of a criminological concept indebted to Mills¿ thought, adapting and applying it to a specifically criminological context. With attention to theoretical concerns, as well as the application of the criminological imagination in concrete empirical research, this volume sheds new light on the methodological and analytical aspects of the criminological imagination as a multifaceted concept, exploring the possibilities that it offers for the emergence of an imaginative criminological practice.
