Front cover has minor wear and edge soiling. Long handwritten statement on page 1. This is one of the Studies in Crime and Public Policy series. Jonathan Simon is an American academic the Lance Robbins Professor of Criminal Justice Law and the former Associate Dean of the Jurisprudence and Social Policy Program at the UC Berkeley School of Law. Simon's scholarship concerns the role of crime and criminal justice in governing contemporary societies risk and the law and the history of the interdisciplinary study of law. His other interests include criminology; penology; sociology; insurance models of governing risk; governance; the origins and consequences of and solutions to the California prison "crisis"; parole; prisons; capital punishment; immigration detention; and the warehousing of incarcerated people. Simon began teaching at the University of California Berkeley in 2003. He published his second monograph Governing through Crime: How the War on Crime Transformed American Democracy and Created a Culture of Fear in 2007 analyzing how problems like poverty and educational inequality became criminalized in the shadow of the New Deal. The book was praised as "the most important and most readable treatment to date on the overreach of crime;" it received the Michael J. Hindelang Award from the American Society of Criminology a Distinguished Book Award from the American Sociological Association and was named a Choice Outstanding Academic Title. As of 2022 Simon has published over 90 academic articles. Across America today gated communities sprawl out from urban centers employers enforce mandatory drug testing and schools screen students with metal detectors. Social problems ranging from welfare dependency to educational inequality have been reconceptualized as crimes with an attendant focus on assigning fault and imposing consequences. Even before the recent terrorist attacks non-citizen residents had become subject to an increasingly harsh regime of detention and deportation and prospective employees subjected to background checks. How and when did our everyday world become dominated by fear every citizen treated as a potential criminal In this startlingly original work Jonathan Simon traces this pattern back to the collapse of the New Deal approach to governing during the 1960s when declining confidence in expert-guided government policies sent political leaders searching for new models of governance. The War on Crime offered a ready solution to their problem: politicians set agendas by drawing analogies to crime and redefined the ideal citizen as a crime victim one whose vulnerabilities opened the door to overweening government intervention. By the 1980s this transformation of the core powers of government had spilled over into the institutions that govern daily life. Soon our schools our families our workplaces and our residential communities were being governed through crime. This powerful work concludes with a call for passive citizens to become engaged partners in the management of risk and the treatment of social ills. Only by coming together to produce security can we free ourselves from a logic of domination by others and from the fear that currently rules our everyday life. Oxford University Press paperback
