Justifying (in)justice offers an in-depth analysis of the 2011 English ‘riots’ and the state’s startlingly punitive response. Drawing on original research inside the criminal justice system, it traces the forms of denial and ignorance that underpin the contemporary politics of law and order, and offers timely insight into the current moment of crisis. -- .
