Vol. 6, nº 2 (2017) , 17-33 p.Idioma: Inglês.País: Austrália.ISSN: 2202-8005Assunto: CIBERCRIME | SOCIEDADE DE INFORMAÇÃO | CRIMINOLOGIA | DIGITALIZAÇÃO CDU: 316 Localização e Cota : 316STR Resumo: The opportunities afforded through digital and communications technologies, in particular social media, have inspired a diverse range of interdisciplinary perspectives exploring how such advancements influence the way we live. Rather than positioning technology as existing in a separate space to society more broadly, the ‘digital society’ is a concept that recognises such technologies as an embedded part of the larger social entity and acknowledges the incorporation of digital technologies, media, and networks in our everyday lives (Lupton 2014), including in crime perpetration, victimisation and justice. In this article, we explore potential for an interdisciplinary concept of digital society to expand and inspire innovative crime and justice scholarship within an emerging field of ‘digital criminology’.
