It explores a variety of approaches including the classical school, the various currents of positivist criminology, and the managerial movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Mehozay contends that Western criminological thought can be seen as an ideological project based on 'otherness', justifying social hierarchies and sustaining the control of some people over others. He demonstrates how ideologies of otherness, such as the non-rational other, the pathological other and more, validate projects of control, exclusion, modernization, and care.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yoav Mehozay\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1529209129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529209129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 172\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.93lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.44d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2024","brand":"Yoav Mehozay","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46881081753855,"sku":"9781529209129","price":149.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4928face-085b-4cbb-a200-852c6ffd39e8.jpg?v=1747970615","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/a-science-of-otherness-yoav-mehozay-9781529209129","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
