Vincenzo RuggieroÌýis a sociologist who believes his students would benefit by expanding their reading lists. Laurie Taylor talks to about his new book Crime in Literature and to criminologist, whose own studies were based on the literature of hooliganism.
ANGLO-AMERICAN RELATIONS
Laurie Taylor is joined by Professor Ìýto discuss a history of Anglo-american relations, where we are and how we got here.
The state of political and diplomatic relations between the two countries was first described as a special relationship by Winston Churchill and the phrase has been chanted like a mantra by successive British leaders, and less frequently by American ones, ever since.
In terms of power, no-one would argue this is a relationship between equals but Kathleen Burkbelieves that the relationship is less unequal than we might think. Long ago it came to be not just about power but about military power and the cost of being America’s favourite mercenary has not always exceeded the reward.
