Description: Cybercrime and Digital Deviance Second Edition combines insights from sociology criminology psychology and cybersecurity to explore cybercrimes such as hacking identity theft and romance scams along with forms of digital deviance such as pornography addiction trolling and canceling people for perceived violations of norms. Other issues are explored including cybercrime investigations nation - state cybercrime the use of algorithms in policing cybervictimization and expanded discussion of the theories used to explain cybercrime. Graham and Smith conceptualize the online space as a distinct environment for social interaction framing their work with assumptions informed by their respective work in urban sociology and spatial criminology and offering an engaging entry point for understanding what may appear to be a technologically complex course of study. The authors apply a modified version of a typology developed by David Wall: cybertrespass cyberfraud cyberviolence and cyberpornography. This typology is simple enough for students just beginning their inquiry into cybercrime while its use of legal categories of trespassing fraud violent crimes against persons and moral transgressions provides a solid foundation for deeper study. In this edition each chapter includes a new Current Events and Critical Thinking section using concepts from the chapter to explore a specific event or topic like the effect of disinformation on social cohesion and politics. Taken together Graham and Smith's application of a digital environment and Wall's cybercrime typology makes this an ideal upper - level text for students in sociology and criminal justice. It is also an ideal introductory text for students within the emerging disciplines of cybercrime and cybersecurity.
