Description
Description
The Social Reality of Crime by Richard Quinney is a landmark work in criminology that transformed how crime, law, and justice are understood. First published in 1970, the book challenged traditional views that treated criminal behavior as individual pathology and instead presented crime as a social construct shaped by power, politics, and social definitions.
Quinney’s theory reshaped the field, inspiring generations of students and researchers to question who defines crime, how criminal labels are applied, and whose interests the justice system serves. Widely cited and reprinted, the book’s foundational ideas are now standard in criminology and sociology courses worldwide. This updated edition reaffirms Quinney’s critical perspective and its lasting influence on criminology, social problems, and the sociology of law.
