Over recent years, the Government focus on anti-social behaviour has been replaced by a focus on respect. Tony Blair's 'Respect Action Plan' was launched in January 2006, Gordon Brown has spoken of "duty, responsibility, and respect for others", and the Conservatives have launched their 'Real Respect Agenda'. Within government, the respect agenda has a cross-departmental influence, but like anti-social behaviour before it, 'respect' has not yet been tightly defined. And what is it about the contemporary UK that sees respect as lacking, that in order to tackle anti-social behaviour we first need to 'secure respect'?

Industry Reviews

"This timely and much-needed set of essays should help inform the ongoing public debate on anti-social behaviour, steering it in a realist social scientific direction, beyond the polarised sloganeering of both political opponents and proponents." Professor Gordon Hughes, Chair in Criminology, School of Social Sciences, Cardiff University
