Although such harms have been studied from both legal and social science perspectives, these disciplinary-specific approaches are not, on their own, fully able to address the complexity of these environmental challenges. Many legal approaches, for example, are limited by their inattention to the motivations behind environmental offences, whereas many social science approaches are hindered by an insufficient grounding in current legislative frameworks. This edited collection constitutes a pioneering attempt to overcome these limitations by uniting legal and social science perspectives. Together, the books contributors forge an innovative socio-legal approach to more effectively respond to, and to prevent, environmental harms around the world. Integrating theoretical and empirical work, the book presents carefully selected illustrations of how legal and social science scholarship can be brought together to improve policies. The various chapters examine how a socio-legal approach can ultimately lead to a more comprehensive understanding of environmental harms, as well as to innovative and effective responses to such environmental offences"--Back cover. 505 00 $t Concluding thoughts : towards a socio-legal research and policy agenda on environmental crimes / $r Tiffany Bergin and Emanuela Orlando. $t Environmental crimes and harms : a green criminology approach and socio-legal challenges / $r Nigel South -- $t Green criminology and the prevention of ecological destruction / $r Ruth McKie, Paul Stretesky, Michael J.
