Summary:"The study of victimization is experiencing profound changes with the introduction of new challenges and demands. From emerging forms of victimization to the continuous evolution of perpetrators' methods, these shifts necessitate critical adjustments of the study at theoretical and practical levels. The scientific community, as well as public communities and institutions of justice grapple with the intricate connections between crime victims and the justice system. Amidst this urgency, there is a distinctive need for a comprehensive resource that not only delves into the complexities of victimology but also addresses the evolving theoretical and practical frameworks shaping the field.Victimization has transformed into unprecedented forms, impacting individuals, communities, and institutions. These changes create a demand for innovative solutions at multiple levels. The scientific community faces the challenge of adapting theoretical approaches, prevention, and intervention strategies to keep pace with evolving victimization methods. Communities and organizations require new protection strategies, particularly in the face of collective victimization. Within justice systems, constant vigilance and adaptation are essential to navigate the complexities of these transformations.Modern Insights and Strategies in Victimology serves as the definitive solution to the pressing challenges presented by the evolving landscape of victimology. Exclusively featuring qualitative studies, the book offers a unique perspective by delving deeply into the lived experiences, narratives, and emotions within the justice system. Through its contemporary and systematic approach, the handbook integrates theoretical approaches with recent empirical studies, emphasizing qualitative methodologies. The book is a testament to its commitment to enriching academic scholarship while providing invaluable insights to victim assistance professionals, policymakers, and decision-makers."--
