Social Bridges and Contexts in Criminology and Sociology
«
"This important volume critically examines James F. Short’s groundbreaking and classic work in urban sociology and criminology, and foreshadows his enduring influence on the field’s future generation of scholars."
Elijah Anderson, Sterling Professor of Sociology and of African American Studies, Department of Sociology, Yale University
"To this day, the fundamental insights that characterized Jim Short's impressive career continue to resonate with criminologists and influence their scholarship. The quality of the contributors and their essays in this volume provide strong testimony to that."
Alfred Blumstein, J. Erik Jonsson University Professor of Urban Systems And Operations Research, Emeritus, Heinz College, Carnegie Mellon University
"The articles in this volume are almost an explosion of praise for the contributions James Short made to the world he was so active a part of as thinker, doer, colleague, and mentor. He was a very special presence. I would add yet another tribute to that already very impressive and well-deserved list. He was elected President of the American Sociological Association at a particularly sensitive time in its history and brought new life to that important organization not only in the year he served as its leader but in the years that preceded and the years that followed."
Kai Erickson, William R. Kenan, Jr. Professor Emeritus of Sociology and American Studies, Department of Sociology, Yale University
"The essays in this volume honor Jim Short and his many contributions to sociology and criminology. Along with Joan Moore, Jim was the Chicago School model for my research. Combining theory and history with close ties to the gang members they studied, both of their collaborative models exemplified field research. It is wonderful to see a collection of work by strong scholars who were similarly influenced by Jim."
John M. Hagedorn, Professor Emeritus of Criminal Justice, Department of Criminology, Law, and Justice, University of Illinois-Chicago
