Samenvatting

In the Elgar Encyclopedia of Environmental Crime, contributing authors present novel ways to conceptualise environmental harm and describe its contemporary manifestations, identifying how to combat these crimes to ensure a sustainable future. They provide conceptual insights as well as empirical descriptions, investigating crimes of contamination, pollution, and ecological damage.

Interdisciplinary and comprehensive in scope, this Encyclopedia adopts a broad view towards the causes of ecological harm and the strategies we can put into action to prevent further damage. Entries explore the nature and dynamics of these crimes and critically analyse topics such as state-corporate fault and non-human victimology.

Key Features:
● Over 50 entries written by leading experts from around the world
● Addresses issues of intersectionality, power imbalances, environmental victimisation, and speciesism
● Incorporates postcolonial and feminist approaches into the study of natural resource exploitation, including crimes such as wildlife trafficking and illegal mining and fishing

This Encyclopedia is a crucial resource for students and researchers of sociology, criminology and environmental law, politics and policy. It is also greatly beneficial to professionals working with bodies such as INTERPOL, the UN and other international organisations, as well as non-government organisations such as TRAFFIC, Greenpeace, WWF, IUCN and Sea Shepherd.
