constitutive criminology
Definition
- Constitutive criminology is a postmodernist theoretical analysis of crime and justice. The core of the constitutive argument is that one cannot separate crime and its control from the totality of the structural and cultural contexts in which human agents produce crime or control or contribute to those contexts.
