Crime as structured action [electronic resource] : doing masculinities, race, class, sexuality, and crime / James W. Messerschmidt

The author of this volume skilfully demonstrates that a vital component to understanding crime is to be able to view it as more than a single activity. James W Messerschmidt argues that crime operates subtly through a complex series of gender, race and class practices and these interwoven elements must be seen as part of all social existence, not viewed independently.
