Reflecting changes in contemporary perceptions as well as desires for scholarship emanating from under-researched areas of the globe, this book addresses the pervasive issue of guns, gun violence and gun homicides. Authored by a wide range of Social Science experts, and premised on the notions of epistemological diversity, inclusivity and knowledge production in the Global South, this book provides comprehensive coverage on the nebulous concern of guns and their destructive force using differing approaches to the same problem, with a focus on prevention/reduction of gun violence. Readers may find the chapters contained in this book to be fascinating, provocative, informative, clearly presented and solution oriented. This book is of special interest to students, criminologists, policymakers, criminal justice system officials and laypersons. It is invaluable to policymakers at differing levels of government who provide advice on the social issue of guns and gun violence in their respective jurisdictions. Wendell C. Wallace is Lecturer in Criminology and Criminal Justice at The University of the West Indies, St. Augustine. He is also an English trained Barrister who practices law in Trinidad and Tobago. Dr. Wallace has over fifteen years of policing experience and lectures at several tertiary institutions in Trinidad and Tobago in the disciplines of Politics, Law, Alternative Dispute Resolution and Criminology and Criminal Justice. 001443203 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 001443203 650_0 $$aFirearms and crime$$zDeveloping countries. 001443203 650_0 $$aViolence$$zDeveloping countries. 001443203 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001443203 7001_ $$aWallace, Wendell C.,$$eeditor. 001443203 77608 $$iPrint version:$$tGuns, gun violence and gun homicides.$$dBasingstoke : Palgrave Macmillan, 2021$$z9783030845179$$w(OCoLC)1272892684 001443203 830_0 $$aPalgrave studies in risk, crime and society. 001443203 852__ $$bebk 001443203 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-84518-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001443203 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1443203$$pGLOBAL_SET 001443203 980__ $$aBIB 001443203 980__ $$aEBOOK 001443203 982__ $$aEbook 001443203 983__ $$aOnline 001443203 994__ $$a92$$bISE
