Abstract
Labeling theory has been very important and influential in the history of criminology, as shown in Chapter 2 by Matsueda. In books on criminological theory (e.g., Cullen and Wilcox, 2010; Lilly et al., 2011), it is always included. However, there have been very few books on labeling theory itself. The most important criminological book was edited by Walter Gove (1980). The present volume is, therefore, the first book on labeling theory in criminology for more than thirty years.
