Community, Conflict and the State

Rethinking Notions of 'Safety', 'Cohesion' and 'Wellbeing'

von C. Cooper
Community safety is a narrowly defined concept that allows states to ignore arguably more serious threats caused by pro-market policies and the actions of major corporations. This book redresses the idea of what constitutes a social harm and outlines a new policy agenda.
