Bringing together a range of perspectives, this book establishes a
criminology of the domestic, paying particular attention to emerging
spatial and relational reconfigurations. We move beyond criminologies
of public and urban domains to consider over-looked non-public
locales, and crimes and harms that occur in the home and other private
spaces. Developed in the context of the COVID-19 lockdowns, where
distinctions between public and private became increasingly untenable,
the book considers how the pandemic has accelerated new patterns of
behaviour, enabled by technology and shifting social relations.
Drawing on a range of criminological topics, including victimisation,
offending, property and violent crime, consumption, deviance and
leisure, and zemiology, the book argues that the domestic sphere, and
its relation to the public realm, needs to be more carefully
conceptualised if criminology is to respond to new spatial and
relational dimensions of changing lifestyles. An accessible and
compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of
criminology, sociology, politics, geography, history, gender,
surveillance and security, and all those interested in a criminology
of the domestic sphere.
