Description
"The relationships between crime and the media have long been the subject of intense debate. In this book, Eamonn Carrabine untangles these debates and grapples with the powerful dynamics of fear and desire that underlie our obsession with crime. Chapter-by-chapter the book introduces the different ways in which relationships between crime and the media have been understood, including classic debates about the media's effects, news production and moral panics, as well as more cutting-edge studies of the representation of crime in the contemporary media." "Combining empirical research findings with the latest theoretical developments, the book will appeal to advanced undergraduates and graduate students across the social sciences, especially those taking courses in criminology and media studies."--Jacket.
