Review of revised edition.

" In his new introduction to the third edition, Stanley Cohen reviews recent sociological theory and criticism about the concept of 'moral panics' and discusses the moral panics generated around the 'folk devils' of today: ecstasy and designer drugs; the death of James Bulger; the 'name and shame' campaign against suspected paedophiles; and the vilification of 'bogus' asylum seekers.
