Crimes against the environment

Crimes against the environment take many forms, but it is a complex area of criminology. This program explores green crime and introduces transgressive criminology and the wider concept of harm, which can be applied to problems like rainforest destruction and global warming. It looks at how Marxism and Beck's late modern concept of risk can be applied to crimes against the environment, and investigates the paradox of economic growth and consumption versus the need to curb global warming and deforestation.

A range of sociologists explain the idea of transgressive criminology and the wider concept of harm, with a look at how Marxism and social theorist Ulrich Beck's concept of the "risk society" can be applied to problems such as the destruction of the rain forest and climate change. The video also notes how increased consumerism threatens environmental preservation, but suggests thcapitalismism multimatelytly be a part of the solution."--Container."
