Critical Crim "Must Reads"

About once every two weeks, I'll receive a post asking: "What are
the basic articles/books I should read to understand Critical
Criminology?"

Any suggestions? Is there a fairly consensual core of readings that
we would recommend to students or others to understand the
perspective? Is critical criminology defined by scholarly exemplars
or by action? (the false dichotomy there notwithstanding).
