The American City in Crime Films: Criminology and the Cinematic City (Routledge Studies in Crime, Culture and Media)
by Andrew J. BaranauskasAnalyzing crime movies set in Detroit, Miami, Boston, Las Vegas, and the fictional Gotham City, this book examines the role that American cities play as characters in crime films. Furthering our awareness of how popular media shapes public understanding of crime and justice in American cities, this book contributes to scholarship in popular criminology by providing insight into the development of criminological theory in cinematic representations of crime and urban space. Each chapter focuses on a different city, starting with an overview of the social, economic, and political history of the city and proceeding to discuss the cinematic depiction of crime and justice in the city. At the heart of each chapter is a discussion of themes that are common across films set in each city. For each theme, the book makes connections to the criminological theory discussed in that chapter and concludes by focusing on real-world implications that stem from the social construction of urban crime in crime films.Bridging the gap between criminology and media studies, The American City in Crime Films will appeal to students of criminology and media studies, and urban sociology/criminology.

This is his chance to enforce his fanatical values on the country he loves.With the aid of an ineffectual president, a reluctant secretary of defense, and a preening faith leader with more than a few secrets, Hornsby declares war on terror—and anyone who stands in his way. But as media scrutiny intensifies, Hornby’s one-man campaign against evil begins to unravel. And the entire nation careens toward another deadly tragedy.The American Crusade paints a grim picture of twenty first-century America, with surprising echoes of the thirteenth-century’s doomed Fourth Crusade.
