Historically grounded and theoretically informed, this book is a thought-provoking examination of emergent forms of public-private power and where they may be headed' -- Dean Wilson, co-author of 'Pre-crime: Pre-emption, Precaution and the Future' 'In this timely text, Wendy Fitzgibbon and John Lea provide a salutary warning of a potentially dystopian future in which the rule of law is ultimately subservient to, and shaped by, the neoliberal project of expanding the economic domination of the powerful' -- Lawrence Burke, co-author of 'Reimagining Rehabilitation Beyond the Individual' 'Privatising Justice is a compelling, and often disturbing, account of the shifting boundaries between state and private coercion.
