Thinking About Victimization Summary

Thinking About Victimization: Context and Consequences by Jillian J. Turanovic (Florida State University, USA)

1. This book occupies a unique place in the market as an upper level text for courses on victims and victimology. Unlike more introductory texts, it does not offer an exhaustive overview of all types of victimization, but instead an advanced and concise analysis of the sources and consequences of victimization, as well as some special topics, all informed by theory and research. It can be used as a core text, supplemented with key readings.
2. New to the second edition are new chapters on the origins of victimology, school victimization, and extended coverage of intimate partner violence and sexual victimization, as well as new research findings on hate crime, police brutality, human trafficking and gun violence.

Thinking About Victimization Reviews

'Taking a fresh approach, Jillian Turanovic and Travis Pratt analyze victimization across diverse contexts, ranging from the small confines of the prison to the expansive reach of the internet. This volume is rich in theory and scholarship but masterfully written to be accessible to students at all levels. It also is a work of practical relevance, as readers are encouraged to consider the disquieting consequences of victimization and to evaluate the policies-both effective and foolish-proposed to reduce such harm. Put simply, Thinking About Victimization has set the standard for textbooks in this area.'

Francis T. Cullen, Distinguished Research Professor Emeritus, University of Cincinnati
