Virtual Criminology
edited by Steve Goodman
This collection of essays opens up the boundaries of criminology to map zones of friction and tension in the turbulent climate of a planetary cybernetic culture. Each essay examines a specific milieu where the grids of security in postmodern social systems have been warped.
From the sonic cartographies of gang warfare and street militarization of hip hop and jungle music (Reynolds), its graphical correlate in graffitti (Carlyle) to the virtual architectures of cybernetic control malfunctions (Goodman) and the killing of reality itself - through the blurring of fact and fiction - (Bogard & Fisher) by the simulations of electronic capitalism.
In these zones of transition, Virtual Criminology attempts to follow the lines of escape from a culture all to eager to send in its mechanisms of law and order.
