Learning to Live with Crime

American Crime Narrative in the Neoconservative Turn

Viac o knihe

The evolution of the war on crime since the 1960s has significantly influenced American literature, prompting writers to explore themes of state authority, criminality, and citizenship. This book examines the shift in narrative focus from iconic mob figures to everyday informants, the prevalence of interrogation scenes in police dramas, and the growing interest in "cold case" investigations and private security. It delves into how these themes reflect societal changes and the complexities of crime and justice in contemporary America.
