The Rise of Extreme Porn: Legal and Criminological Perspectives on Extreme Pornography in England and Wales by Alexandros K. Antoniou, Dimitris Akrivos
English | 2017 | ISBN: 3319489704 | 369 Pages | PDF | 7.9 MB

This book analyses the criminalisation of the possession of extreme pornography through ss 63-68 of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Act 2008. It documents the legislative history of the offence and offers a criminological perspective on the role of the media in the construction of the extreme pornography problem. It evaluates the elements of the s 63 offence and critically reflects upon their weaknesses. Moreover, the book presents an up-to-date account of the number of prosecutions initiated and convictions obtained under s 63 since it came into force, alongside an exploration into the corresponding sentencing trends.
