This edited volume is unique in that it draws on a wide variety of disciplines and presents perspectives on both sides of the debate. Contributors hail from the academic disciplines of history, social work, criminal justice, sociology, religion, and theological ethics as well as policy agencies. Some chapters examine the issues social-psychologically to help readers better understand dynamics within the debate. Others pose important ethical and philosophical questions about gun culture. Still others address practical policy solutions for enhancing gun safety and minimizing gun violence, even bringing in international perspectives. This second edition includes literature published in the last two years and two new chapters, one focusing on gender within gun culture and another that features a conversation between the editors and an ethnographic researcher with broad expertise in gun culture and research and policy trends. Together, the chapters create a thought-provoking compilation that offers insightful findings, considers theoretical and practical implications, and invites further exploration of the topic.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 228mmItem Length: 160mmItem Width: 19mmItem Weight: 499gContributor: Craig Hovey (Edited by), Lisa Fisher (Contributions by), Jangmin Kim (Contributions by), Paul Yamane (Contributions by), Garrison Allen Crews (Contributions by), Jim D.
