Moral Panics and the Media
Chas Critcher
The term 'moral panic' is frequently applied to sudden outbreaks of concern about social problems. This work critically evaluates the usefulness of moral panic models for understanding how politicians, the public and pressure groups come to recognise apparent new threats to the social order, and also scrutinizes the role of the media.
