"This book introduces the growing field of Queer Criminology. It reflects on its origins, surveys its foundational research and scholarship, and offers suggestions for future directions. Moreover, this book emphasises the importance of Queer Criminology to the field and the need to move LGBTQ issues from the margins to the centre of criminological research. Core content includes: -Contested definitions of and conceptual frameworks for Queer Criminology; -The criminalisation of queerness and gender identity in historical and contemporary context; -The relationship between LGBTQ communities and law enforcement; -The impact of legislation and court decisions on LGBTQ communities, including the issue of sentencing disparity; -The experiences of queer victims and offenders under correctional supervision, and the impact the criminal legal system has on both of these populations. This revised and updated edition includes new developments in theory and research, further coverage of international issues and a new chapter on victimization and offending. It is essential reading for those engaged with queer and feminist criminologies, gender studies, diversity, and criminal justice"--
