Craftivism has experienced a resurgence in recent years, often in direct response to the social, environment and political concerns of those who engage in the practice. Acts of craftivism raise important questions for criminologists about the use of public space, power, and resistance. McGovern focuses on an example of the 'craftivist' movement that has been steadily gaining momentum since the early to mid-2000s: yarn bombing. As an urban craft movement that melds the skills of knitting or crochet with the act of graffiti, yarn bombing has the potential to contribute to criminological understandings of graffiti and street art, particularly on issues of gender, perceptions of and motivations for graffiti, and the commodification of crime. Drawing on interviews with yarn bombers and craftivists, Craftivism and Yarn Bombing explores how such acts can be understood and explored through a criminological lens, and will be of interest to students and scholars across a range of disciplines, including criminology, sociology, cultural studies, gender studies, and urban studies. 000913337 588__ $$aDescription based on online resource; title from digital title page (viewed on September 03, 2019). 000913337 650_0 $$aYarn bombing. 000913337 650_0 $$aHandicraft$$xPolitical aspects. 000913337 650_0 $$aHandicraft$$xSocial aspects. 000913337 650_0 $$aCriminology$$xMethodology. 000913337 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aMcGovern, Alyce$$tCraftivism and Yarn Bombing : A Criminological Exploration$$dLondon : Palgrave Macmillan Limited,c2019$$z9781137579904 000913337 830_0 $$aCritical criminological perspectives. 000913337 852__ $$bebk 000913337 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1057/978-1-137-57991-1$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000913337 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:913337$$pGLOBAL_SET 000913337 980__ $$aEBOOK 000913337 980__ $$aBIB 000913337 982__ $$aEbook 000913337 983__ $$aOnline 000913337 994__ $$a92$$bISE
