Through case studies and a practice-based approach, it examines how victimhood is defined and constructed across ritual commemoration, artistic practice, and media practices tied to police violence. Contributors from cultural studies advance debate within criminology victimology and open a “victimological turn” in culture studies.","Cultural Practices of Victimhood  \nCultural Practices of Victimhood aims to set the agenda for a cultural study of victimhood. Words such as ‘victim’ and ‘victimhood’ represent shifting cultural signifiers, their meaning depending on the cultural context of their usage. Using case studies and through a practice-based approach, questions are asked about how victimhood is defined and constructed, whether in the ritual commemoration of refugees on Lampedusa, the artistic practices of an Aboriginal artist such as Richard Bell, or the media practices associated with police violence.  \nConsisting of contributions by cultural studies experts with an interest in victim studies, this book seeks a double readership. On the one hand, it intends to break new ground with regards to a ‘cultural turn’ in the field of criminology, in particular victimology. On the other hand, it also seeks to open up discussions about a ‘victimological turn’ in culture studies. The volume invites scholars and advanced students active in both domains to reflect on victimhood in cultural practices.  \nMartin Hoondert studied musicology and theology and is specialized in music and rituals. Since 2007 he has been (associate) professor of Music, Religion and Ritual at the Department of Culture Studies of Tilburg University. His research focuses on ‘music and death’ and ‘practices of memorialization’.  \nPaul Mutsaers studied cultural anthropology at Utrecht University and works as a police anthropologist for the Department of Culture Studies, Tilburg University, where he is employed as a postdoctoral researcher. He has previously worked at the Police Academy of the Netherlands, where he carried out his PhD research on police discrimination.  \nWilliam Arfman has a background in the archaeology and anthropology of Central America, as well as the comparative study of religion. Currently, he is a postdoctoral associate and lecturer in the field of ritual studies at Tilburg University. Favouring an interdisciplinary approach, his main research interests are late modern ritual dynamics, ritual innovation and traditionality, ritual and (community) art, and ritual commemoration.  \nVictims, Culture and Society Edited by:  \nSandra Walklate  \nUniversity of Liverpool, UK and Monash University, Australia Kerry Carrington  \nQueensland University of Technology, Australia  \nConcerns about victimisation have multiplied over the last 50 years. Victims, Culture and Society explores the major concepts, debates and controversies that this concern has generated across a range of disciplines but particularly within criminology and victimology. As the impact of globalisation, the movement of peoples, the divergences between the global north and the global south have become ever more apparent, this series provides an authoritative space for original contributions in making sense of these far-reaching changes on individuals, localities and nationalities. These issues in their very nature demand an interdisciplinary approach and an interdisciplinary voice outside conventional conceptual boundaries. Victims, Culture and Society offers the space for that voice.  \nEach author will adopt a strong personal view and offer a lively and agenda-setting treatment of their subject matter. The monographs will encompass a transnational, global or comparative approach to the issues they address. Examining new areas of both empirical and theoretical inquiry the series offers the opportunity for innovative and progressive thinking about the relationship between victims, culture and society. The books will be useful and thought-provoking resources for the international community of undergraduates, post-graduates, researchers and policymakers working within the broad field of victimisation.  \nGoverning Child Abuse, Voices and Victimisation The Use of the Public Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse in Christian Institutions  \nJodi Death  \nCultural Practices of Victimhood
