Reviews

'...a fresh approach to understanding the processes of moral regulation in secular, pluralist, states. This is no mean feat. Focussing on the censorship of internet-delivered porn , Beattie identifies metasomic processes whereby regulatory regimes persist over time despite radically changing justifications. This work offers unique insights. A richly thoughtful study, it is grounded in careful attention to state practice and interpreted through the lenses of contemporary social theory, spatiality, regulatory fortressing, and critical human geography.' W. Wesley Pue, University of British Columbia, Canada
