This approach eases instruction by encouraging students to engage in critical thinking about victimshelping students understand how victimization relates to the social context in which victims live.Crime Victims in Context explores the following themes:* Ways in which the victim role is constructed in the media, in public discourse, and in political responses to crime. This sets the stage for rethinking the meaning of victimization.* Approaching victimization as a social eventthe social exchanges, or transactions, between victim and offender.* An exploration of the aftermath of crimeexamining the effects of crime on the victim, including the physical and socioemotional costs of victimization.* Responses by the criminal justice system in the adjudication of offender guilt as well as victim support groups.Coverage includes both sides of such controversial issues as fear of crime, victim blaming, the 'abuse excuse,' whitecollar victimization, and restorative justice. The discussion of culture and the discussion of victims and victimization as moral stratification are innovative features of this text.
