note = "{\textquoteleft}Rehabilitating Leviathan{\textquoteright} is the product of long-term research into the ability of the social democratic state to establish and maintain conditions conducive to reduced levels of interpersonal violence. The article makes a contribution to a new wave of criminological theory currently challenging culturalism and re-assessing the role of the democratic state in the reduction of violent crime. It is cited in Prof. Robert Reiner{\textquoteright}s new book Law and Order and in the Oxford Handbook of Criminology as {\textquoteleft}one of the more persuasive arguments in support of the theory that social democracy is the most effective politico-economic platform for violence reduction{\textquoteright}.",
