How do you prosecute a serial killer whose last victim was never found? Can a fleeing felon be charged with murdering a police officer he never met and was killed two miles away? Why was District Attorney Benjamin David called to the White House to address ending mass incarceration in America while lowering the crime rate at the same time? Crime and Community in the Cape Fear: A Prosecutor's Guide to a Healthier Hometown answers these questions and guides readers through two decades of famous and influential legal cases. This is a first-person account of the elected district attorney and presents key decisions that have shaped legal precedent. The book also demonstrates how citizens in any part of the country can apply legal principles to build community and foster healthier, happier, and safer hometowns. Conversational, highly accessible, and an enjoyable read, Crime and Community in the Cape Fear is an exceptional resource for courses and programs in criminal justice, as well as any course that focuses on community solutions to prevent crime.

This new book by the well-known anthropologists Jean and John L. Comaroff explores the global preoccupation with criminality in the early twenty-first century, a preoccupation strikingly disproportionate, in most places and for most people, to the risks posed by lawlessness to the conduct of everyday life. Ours in an epoch in which law-making, law-breaking, and law-enforcement are ever more critical registers in which societies construct, contest, and confront truths about themselves, an epoch in which criminology, broadly defined, has displaced sociology as the privileged means by which the social world knows itself. They also argue that as the result of a tectonic shift in the triangulation of capital, the state, and governance, the meanings attached to crime and, with it, the nature of policing, have undergone significant change; also, that there has been a palpable muddying of the lines between legality and illegality, between corruption and conventional business; even between crime-and-policing, which exist, nowadays, in ever greater, hyphenated complicity. Thinking through Crime and Policing is, therefore, an excursion into the contemporary Order of Things; or, rather, into the metaphysic of disorder that saturates the late modern world, indeed, has become its leitmotif. It is also a meditation on sovereignty and citizenship, on civility, class, and race, on the law and its transgression, on the political economy of representation.
