- W2560578223 abstract "Book Review: L. Cao, I.Y. Sun, and B. Heberton (eds.). (2014) The Routledge Handbook on Chinese Criminology Oxan, UK: Routledge. pp. 352 (HB). $317.16 (Indigo); $180.42 e-version on AmazonReviewed by: John WinterdykDepartment of Economics, Justice, and Policy Studies, Mount Royal University, Calgary, AB. CANADA T3E 6K6 jwinterdyk@mtroyal.caRoutledge has produced a number of international handbooks and this book is the latest in the series. To date, the other international handbooks (i.e., International Criminology and European Criminology) are deemed valuable resource texts for anyone who is interested in subject areas. Chapter 45 in the Handbook on International Criminology, is the only chapter that focuses on the state of criminology on China. The authors, Xiu and Tingyao, point out that criminology is China is only about 30-years old but that it has evolved and there is a growing body of research and scholars who are now engaged in criminological research.The three editors of the Handbook on Chinese Criminology are well qualified to have prepared this reference book. They each have impressive academic publication records and have engaged in a varied number of research involving China and the greater China region. Together, the editors have continued the tradition of organizing and producing a quality and informative overview of their subject matter - Chinese criminology.The book is logically divided into five equally balanced sections averaging five chapters per section. Section I offers a sweeping, yet comprehensive overview of the historical development of criminology in China while Section II includes seven chapters which offer an insightful overview of not only the Chinese criminal justice system covering such elements as the death penalty (Ch. 11) and the various key elements of the criminal justice system. For example, Chapter 6 focuses on policing in China while Chapter 5 covers the complexity of the Chinese legal system, and Chapter 9 addresses participatory model of juvenile justice in China, among other key themes. The shortest section is Section IIIwhich only includes three chapters. Nevertheless, they each address the various issues and challenges in relation to 'Methods of Inquiry'. For example, in Chapter 12, He discusses the politics behind crime statistics in China, while Zhang, in Chapter 14, offers insight into criminological research in contemporary China.Section IV, 'Forms of crime and criminality', I suspect was arguably the most challenging section to compile because of the range of topics that could/should have been included. Five types of crime/criminality are covered - drugs, prostitution, the critical topic of urbanization and migration and associated crime, domestic violence, and finally white-collar and corporate crime. While each of the topics has considerable merit, a separate chapter or some other pedagogical feature could have been used to touch on such issues are human and organ trafficking, counterfeiting, computer crimes, censorship, and the general concern of human rights violations. …" @default.
