Description

There is increasing pressure on the humanities to justify their value and on criminology to undertake interdisciplinary research.

In this book, Rafe McGregor establishes a new interdisciplinary methodology, 'criminological criticism', harnessing the synergy between literary studies and critical criminology to produce genuine interventions in social reality. McGregor practices criminological criticism on George Miller's 'Mad Max: Fury Road', Prime Video's 'Carnival Row' and J.K.

Rowling's 'The Cuckoo's Calling', demonstrating how these popular allegories provide insights into the harms of sexism, racism and class prejudice. This book proposes a model for collaboration between literary studies and critical criminology that is beneficial to the humanities, the social sciences and society.
