Table of ContentsReviewsCan stories reduce crime? Rafe McGregor believes so, specifically when it comes to ideologically motivated crime, whether perpetrated by state actors or non-state actors. Narrative Justice is a major contribution to narrative criminology with criminological applications and ethical implications that make imperative reading for those tasked with law enforcement and policy making at the highest levels. -- Ajit Maan, Founder and CEO, Narrative Strategies LLC In Narrative Justice, McGregor applies meticulous philosophical reasoning to work out how we might reduce criminal inhumanity through narrative. His ideas on the ethical value of narrative representation and the knowledge-generating capacity of `exemplary stories' will be of enduring value to social theory, criminology, and to anyone who hopes to change minds. -- Lois Presser, Professor of Sociology, University of Tennessee Author InformationRafe McGregor is Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Edge Hill University. He specialises in narrative representation, ideologically-motivated crime, and social exclusion.
