- Description
- The 'tough on crime' policies of the 1990s have had a negative impact on women and children - an impact not fully anticipated or fully recognized by policy makers. Offering a feminist perspective, this book explores the adverse effects of the United States crackdown on crime, exposing the unintended consequences of today's crime control policies.
