The chapters in the collection bring to the foreground the distinctive contributions that ethnographic and ethnomethodologically-informed studies have to offer research on law and social control from theoretical, methodological, and substantive viewpoints.The discussions address a usefully broad and timely variety of themes, including management of the media by prosecutors in the famous Mike Tyson rape case; celebrity stalking and its social control; community protection strategies and legislation for high-risk sex offenders; probation officers' use of technology to "monitor" domestic violence offenders; how contemporary immigration rules-in-practice impact the immigration status of skilled professionals; bureaucratic decision-making by federal housing officers; police methods of interrogating suspects through an interpreter; how juvenile courts respond to troublesome youths; Self-change treatment programs for violent offenders in prison; and, how jail inmates construct parenthood behind bars. The collection emphasizes the need to consider the organizationally and institutionally specific features and competencies that comprise the legal and social control work under investigation and allows for a deeper appreciation of the practical terms through which people involved in this work make their activities meaningful, carry out their tasks, and organize their interactions. 410 0$aSociology of crime, law, and deviance ;$vv. 6. 606 $aCrime prevention 606 $aCrime$xSociological aspects 606 $aSocial control 606 $aJustice, Administration of$xSocial aspects 606 $aCrime & criminology$2bicssc 606 $aLaw$xGeneral$2bisacsh 606 $aSocial Science$xCriminology$2bisacsh 615 0$aCrime prevention. 615 0$aCrime$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aSocial control. 615 0$aJustice, Administration of$xSocial aspects. 615 7$aCrime & criminology. 615 7$aLaw$xGeneral. 615 7$aSocial Science$xCriminology. 676 $a364.4 701 $aBurns$b Stacy Lee$01105247 801 0$bCaPaEBR 801 1$bUBY 801 2$bOCLCQ 801 2$bZJC 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910671303103321 996 $aEthnographies of law and social control$93056326 997 $aUNINA
