Beschreibung
This volume explores the continuous line from informal and unrecorded practices all the way up to illegal and criminal practices, performed and reproduced by both individuals and organisations. The authors classify them as alternative, subversive forms of governance performed by marginal (and often invisible) peripheral actors. The volume studies how the informal and the extra-legal unfold transnationally and, in particular, how and why they have been/are being progressively criminalized and integrated into the construction of global and local dangerhoods; how the above-mentioned phenomena are embedded into a post-liberal security order; and whether they shape new states of exception and generate moral panic whose ultimate function is regulatory, disciplinary and one of crafting practices of political ordering.

Sheds light on a multiform phenomenon which is unfolding on a global scale Challenges and complements the literature that draws on a “crime and justice” approach Critically explores how development and governance produced through formal bodies are questioned, challenged and renegotiated through informal mechanisms and institutions
