Coles Compliance, Defiance, and 'Dirty' Luxury: New Perspectives on Anti-Corruption Elite Contexts at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC
*Product information may vary - to confirm product availability, pricing, shipping and return information please contact Coles
This book interrogates the transnational field of (anti-)corruption and elite crime. Using the lens of luxury, art, and antiquities, the contributors reconceptualize the driving dialectics of corruption and anti-corruption. Compliance, Defiance and 'Dirty' Luxury brings together scholars across criminology, anthropology, sociology, and the humanities to tackle these dialectics from different angles and positions, digging deeper into these corrupt zigzags of compliance and defiance. This approach reveals a self-reinforcing, accelerating, neoliberal perpetuum mobile churning out a frenzy of public-private crime-fighting initiatives that stimulate the expansion of various control and surveillance architectures which time and again fail. This volume opens new theoretical and empirical paths of investigation for criminologists and anthropologists alike. While the book speaks primarily to academic audiences and graduate students, it also appeals to a broad range of professionals. Tereza Østbo Kuldova is Research Professor and a social anthropologist based at the Work Research Institute, Oslo Metropolitan University, Norway. Jardar Østbo is Professor and Head of Programme for Russian Security and Defence Policy at the Institute for Defence Studies, Norwegian Defence University College. Cris Shore is emeritus Professor of Anthropology at Goldsmiths University of London, UK, and currently Senior Research Fellow at the Institute for Advanced Study, Central European University, Hungary.
