Although much has been written on the subject of SCP since its publication, nothing detracts from its contemporary utility and contributions to the ever-growing debate on the ethics and social foundations that ground situational crime prevention.

The series publishes cutting-edge work on penal theory and ethics – both broadly construed – and on their intersections. It is particularly open to approaches belonging to different intellectual traditions – whether analytical, comparative, or historical – and to interdisciplinary approaches. While the series’s emphasis is theoretical, it is hoped that many of its volumes will highlight some of the ways in which theoretical work relates to practical concerns. New titles in this series can be found on the Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics series page. General Editor: Leo Zaibert
