State crimes are historically and contemporarily ubiquitous and result in more injury and death than traditional street crimes such as robbery, theft, and assault. Consider that genocide during the 20th century in Germany, Rwanda, Darfur, Albania, Turkey, Ukraine, Cambodia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, and other regions claimed the lives of tens of millions and rendered many more homeless, imprisoned, and psychologically and physically damaged. Despite the gravity of crimes committed by states and political leaders, until recently these harms have been understudied relative to conventional street crimes in the field of criminology. Over the past two decades, a growing number of criminologists have conducted rigorous research on state crime and have tried to disseminate it widely including attempts to develop courses that specifically address crimes of the state. Referencing a broad range of cases of state crime and international institutions of control, State Criminality provides a general framework and survey-style discussion of the field for teaching undergraduate and graduate students, and serves as a useful general reference point for scholars of state crime.

A special issue including articles adapted from presentations at a workshop that explored issues of resistance with the literature on state crim. Each contribution discusses the idea of resisting state criminality. Adapted from the source document.
The term post-resistance differs conceptually from what scholars have traditionally considered state crime controls since it encompasses more than the punitive nature of individual punishment per se (Ross, 1995/2000, 2000; Rothe and Mullins, 2006). It reflects the ideology that undergirds the push to end impunity for heads of state and high-ranking officials as a preventative mechanism and first step in the creation of broader ideological change in the international ethos. This includes generating or strengthening universal moral and ethical obligatory standards: international moral solidarity against massive human rights violations, genocide, crimes against humanity, crimes of aggression, and war crimes. This effort, however, is embedded in a broader contradiction, the ideology behind post-resistance and subsequent developments within international criminal justice systems and the historical and current realities of the practices of states. Adapted from the source document.
Millions of people have been victimized by the actions and omissions of states and governments. This collection provides expert analyses of such victimizations across the world, from Europe, the United States, and Africa to New Zealand and South America. Leading scholars in the area of state crime describe the nature, extent, and distribution of state crime victimization, as well as theoretical and practical paths for understanding, explaining, and aiding victims of massive harms by governments. Cases of state crime and state victimization are presented on Brazilian, Native Ame

This book addresses immensely consequential crimes in the world today that, to date, have been almost wholly neglected by students of crime and criminal justice: crimes of globalization. This term refers to the hugely harmful consequences of the policies and practices of international financial institutions - principally in the global South. A case is made for characterizing these policies and practices specifically as crime. Although there is now a substantial criminological literature on transnational crimes, crimes of states and state-corporate crimes, crimes of globalization intersect with
