Additional text

"This book serves as an antidote to a range of contemporary tropes that increasingly fetishise forms of punitive-paternalism...The book also serves as a vaccine against the orthodoxy of the law-and-order mythology that has colonised almost all areas of culture and politics across the globe." —Erasmus Research
