From prison interviews with violent offenders and a wealth of experience and research, Australian psychologist Dr Katie Siedler explores the complex interaction between crime and culture. Featuring the voices of the offenders themselves, 15 convicted adult male violent offenders, from various ethnic cultural communities, explain their understanding, motivations and rationalisations for their actions, and how these relate to questions of identity, community and responsibility within their cultural experience and values.
