SEX OFFENDERS, STIGMA, AND SOCIAL CONTROLDiana Rickard“Rickard’s work is an important one on a subject that has not adequately been studied, namely the status of sex offenders and the present ‘moral panic.’ Clear, organized, and well-researched, Sex Offenders, Stigma, and Social Control is both distinctive and brave.”—Lynn Chancer, Hunter College192 pp • 978-0-8135-7829-3 Cloth • $44.95ss $31.47

MEAN LIVES, MEAN LAWSOklahoma’s Women PrisonersSusan F. Sharp“Mean Lives, Mean Laws is historically, theoretically, and methodologically remarkable. But even more importantly, the self-reported rates and words of real incarcerated women about their harsh lives before, in, after, and sometimes upon re-entry to prison are powerful testimonies to how the U.S. system is fundamentally flawed in responding to women and girls as victims and offenders.”—Joanne Belknap, author of The Invisible Woman: Gender,

POLICE, POWER, AND THE PRODUCTION OF RACIAL BOUNDARIESAna MuñizMuñiz reveals how the LAPD, city prosecutors, and business owners struggled to control who should be considered “dangerous” and how they should be policed in Los Angeles. Muñiz shows how this influential group used policies and everyday procedures to criminalize behaviors commonly associated with blacks and Latinos and to promote an exceedingly aggressive form of policing.144 pp • 9 photographs, 5 figures, 2 tables • 978-0-8135-6975-8 Paper • $26.95S $18.87

Clarke delivers a multifaceted perspective on these practices, incorporating legal analysis, sociocultural discussion, and policy debate.
