“This book provides much-needed breadth and depth to the field of green criminology, which aims to challenge and broaden how we see crimes against the environment, which stand out from other crimes by their extent over both places and time – affecting lands and generations far beyond specific violations. Nowhere is the gap between a crime’s impact and its punishment greater than on environmental crime, where even the most serious violations are rarely punished.” (Mark Ungar, Criminal Law and Criminal Justice, clcjbooks.rutgers.edu, October, 2018)<br />“This edition is undeniably an important first step for advancing knowledge about environmental crimes in Latin America … . The cases in this book include illustrations from Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador and Mexico. … The volume’s combination of theoretical reflections with case studies makes for a particularly engaging read that would benefit anyone interested in contemporary environmental problems in Latin America.” (Johanna Espin, Critical Criminology, Vol. 26, 2018)
