Abstract:

AbstractThe Radzinowicz Library is the specialist criminology library of the Institute of Criminology, a research and teaching department of the University of Cambridge. As Stuart Stone explains, it is the premier academic criminology collection in the United Kingdom and indeed it is one of the major collections in this subject in the world. The library primarily serves the Institute and the University but also the wider community of criminal justice researchers, many of whom are regular visitors. In common with other libraries, financial pressures are a continuing concern, especially because of the interdisciplinary nature of the subject. Outreach and engagement with organisations outside academia add to the distinctive characteristics of the library.

Abstract:

Criminologists are often frustrated by the disconnect between sound empirical research and public policy initiatives. Recently, there have been several attempts to better connect research evidence and public policy. While these new strategies may well bear fruit, I believe the challenge is largely an intellectual one. Ideas and research evidence must guide public policy and practice. In this article, I present highlights from my tenure as the Director of the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), the research, development, and evaluation agency in the Department of Justice. One of the ideas that I emphasized at NIJ was “Translational Criminology.” I believe translational criminology acknowledges NIJ’s unique mission to facilitate rigorous research that is relevant to the practice and policy. I also discuss the challenges I faced in bringing research to bear on public policy and practice. I end with a call for my colleagues in criminology and criminal justice to become more involved in government.

Abstract:

AbstractThis article by Adrian Howe is based on a presentation given at the ‘Sources and Methods in Criminology and Criminal Justice Conference’ in November 2015, jointly sponsored by the Institute of Advanced Education and the Socio-Legal Studies Association. She begins by querying whether there are indeed distinct feminist methods in the social sciences. She outlines the impact of what she calls the ‘methodical revolution’ on the criminology discipline, Foucault's contribution and Foucauldian methodologies deployed in criminological and criminal justice research.

Abstract:

The application of criminology in the investigation of criminal acts committed by children by investigators at the PPA Unit of the Satreskrim Polres Agam is used to make decisions for the settlement of crimes committed by children based on examinations of the children's motivation and reasons for committing crimes. The use of criminology in investigations shows several factors that cause children to commit crimes, namely because of the influence of friends or play groups such as in the crime of motorbike theft committed by children. Another cause is the negative influence of cellphones. For example, one case of intercourse with a child by a child in Agam District, the cause is because the child often watches pornographic videos. Constraints in the application of criminology in the investigation of criminal acts committed by children by investigators at the PPA Unit of the Criminal Investigation Unit of the Agam Police are the capabilities and methods of child assistant investigators / investigators in every process of investigating child criminal acts when it is related to the various kinds of education they get as well as with facilities and infrastructure and minimal funds.

Abstract:

This paper introduces to the accounting literature two prominent criminology theories, strain and differential association, as possible explanations for criminal behavior by accountants and applies a recent integration of the two, coercion theory, to three recent financial statement frauds. We argue that understanding and preventing fraudulent accounting can be furthered by placing the phenomenon within the context of criminology research, which supports both individual and group-level explanations for white-collar crime. We also suggest that the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) moved too quickly in adopting Cressey's fraud triangle as the explanatory model for financial fraud in Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 99. Our analysis, although exploratory in nature, suggests that examining financial statement fraud through the lens provided by criminology theory may provide new insights into its causes as well as tools for detection and prevention. We conclude with a discussion of policy implications.

Abstract:

If I may freely paraphrase Lady Bracknell (in The Importance of Being Earnest), to deliver an inaugural lecture one year after arrival in Cambridge seems unfortunate; to deliver it after being in post for two years looks like carelessness. Yet, as those from the Institute of Criminology will know, there is a particular reason for this timing. This month marks the twenty-fifth anniversary of the University's postgraduate course in criminology, and I was myself a student on that first course, back in 1961. For me, therefore, there is a special personal satisfaction that this lecture is immediately to be followed by our formal celebration of the twenty-fifth anniversary of the course.

Abstract:

The Australian Institute of Criminology (AIC) has had a rocky journey since its founding in 1971 and, at the moment, is undergoing a drastic cut in its funding. The article examines the structural stresses that reside in the location of a putatively autonomous agency within a political framework. Tensions arise when AIC findings and interpretations cause distress to federal or state officials. Difficulties also inhere in the question of who establishes the AlC's research agenda, and how that agenda is carried out. The article provides details of the AlC's origins and some of its history, and it reviews two recent reports which have come down heavily on the work of the Institute. It also considers the relationship between the AIC and the media and, in conclusion, suggests what its future might be.

Abstract:

Abstract in the language of the article. In the work, the author proved that the relevance of the scientific study of the institute of education through the prism of its place and role in the system of crime prevention and counteraction is primarily determined by the imperfection of the organizational and functional components of the state mechanism of law enforcement and law enforcement, the incompleteness of the reforms of the law enforcement and judicial systems, and the inconsistency in reforming the education system. It was noted that today, due to various economic, political, military, demographic, and social reasons, access to education is difficult, and its quality level does not always allow for the formation of a personality with a high level of legal awareness and culture. So it was concluded that the issue of the system of crime prevention and countermeasures, including the place and role of the educational institution in it, continues to be acutely on the agenda of Ukraine's development, guaranteeing legality and law and order in it. Based on the analysis of scientific publications related to the topic of the study, it was concluded that at the level of criminology, the issue of the institute of education in the system of crime prevention and countermeasures was investigated rather episodically and inconsistently, mainly through the prism of studying other adjacent components of the crime prevention and countermeasure system. Considering the fact that the institution of education as a component of the system of crime prevention and countermeasures has a high cognitive value as a criminological problem, it is indicated that this institution needs proper state and legal support. An analysis of the state of criminological scientific research at the Institute of Education in Ukraine made it possible to give it a critical assessment. The inadequacy of modern studies of the criminological aspects of the institute of education, its role in the formation of the legal consciousness of modern youth in Ukraine in the spirit of respect for the law and the law, legal values that have been formed in the national society, is noted. Taking into account the above, promising directions for the study of the institute of education as a component of the system of crime prevention and countermeasures have been scientifically substantiated.

Abstract:

The beginnings of a scientific discipline are usually connected with the publication of a certain manuscript or the founding of a research institute. In the Czech Lands, the founding of psychology is traced to the academic year 1921/1922, when František Krejčí (1858–1934) founded the Psychological Institute at the Faculty of Arts of Charles University, and the beginnings of criminology are connected to the founding of Criminological Research Institute in the 1960s. However, a question remains, which moment in history defines the founding of forensic psychology in the Czech Lands. In order to answer this question, I have described the multidisciplinary beginnings of forensic psychology, the state of scientific fields up till 1939, and created a publication timeline from 1918 to 1939. Based upon the analysis of the publication timeline and using the six basic characteristics of scientific discipline, it can be stated that the publication of Josef Šejnoha Criminal Psychology from 1930 is the defining moment of founding forensic psychology in the Czech Republic.

Abstract:

The historical experience of India in search of its own concept of punishment is unique. It was greatly influenced by the countrys colonial past and the Anglo-Saxon legal culture as well as the philosophical, religious, ethno-linguistic, caste, tribal and other factors. The Indian Penal Code of 1860 uses an original penological construct and a system of punishments. It was influenced by the historical and theoretical factors described in this article, by criminal policy in British India and by its post-colonial development. The countrys penological discourse, influenced by the criminal law doctrine of the metropolitan state, has two distinct features. Firstly, it is the diversity of types of punishment and judges discretion in choosing them to individualize liability. Secondly, the humanitarian orientation of the institute of punishment and the reduction in the number of crimes punishable by death penalty. English lawyer Th.B. Macaulay, the creator of the Indian Penal Code of 1860, considered general prevention, or deterrence, to be the main goal of punishment, while specific prevention through the physical isolation of the criminal and his correction was viewed as a complimentary goal. It was important for the colonial criminal policy to obtain tangible results from the penological theory and the practices of punishment in order to suppress the local ritual crimes (cult «thuggism») and traditional ritual sacrifices (sati ritual). After a large-scale sepoy rebellion and the spread of dacoity crimes, the repressive functions of punishment began to prevail over other penological theories. The so-called «white terror» was commonly used against political opponents fighting for religious freedoms and independence of colonial India. Modern India is a good example of the controversial experience of the search for the effective criminal-penological theories that is a considerable addition to the classic (westernized) criminology. The special historical concepts and practices of punishment in the countries of the «global south», including India, are now studied by the new field of «Southern Criminology». The Indian government is promoting a complex criminal-penological approach to counteracting domestic crimes and transnational threats.

Abstract:

Background Epidemiological criminology refers to health issues affecting incarcerated and nonincarcerated offender populations, a group recognized as being challenging to conduct research with. Notwithstanding this, an urgent need exists for new knowledge and interventions to improve health, justice, and social outcomes for this marginalized population. Objective To better understand research outputs in the field of epidemiological criminology, we examined the lead author’s affiliation by analyzing peer-reviewed published outputs to determine countries and organizations (eg, universities, governmental and nongovernmental organizations) responsible for peer-reviewed publications. Methods We used a semiautomated approach to examine the first-author affiliations of 23,904 PubMed epidemiological studies related to incarcerated and offender populations published in English between 1946 and 2021. We also mapped research outputs to the World Justice Project Rule of Law Index to better understand whether there was a relationship between research outputs and the overall standard of a country’s justice system. Results Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Finland, and Denmark) had the highest research outputs proportional to their incarcerated population, followed by Australia. University-affiliated first authors comprised 73.3% of published articles, with the Karolinska Institute (Sweden) being the most published, followed by the University of New South Wales (Australia). Government-affiliated first authors were on 8.9% of published outputs, and prison-affiliated groups were on 1%. Countries with the lowest research outputs also had the lowest scores on the Rule of Law Index. Conclusions This study provides important information on who is publishing research in the epidemiological criminology field. This has implications for promoting research diversity, independence, funding equity, and partnerships between universities and government departments that control access to incarcerated and offending populations.

Abstract:

Research on custodial suicide has run into immense difficulties in its attempt to identify common characteristics of the suicide-prone inmate. In 1993, Haycock recognized these difficulties and called for comparative research to delineate the different risks posed by different sorts of confined populations. This paper contrasts the characteristics of different categories of confined inmates based on data collected by the Australian Institute of Criminology on deaths in custody within Australia between the years 1980 and 1993, inclusive. This form of research will lead to a greater understanding of the phenomenon of custodial suicide and the establishment of better preventive strategies tailored to the needs of specific groups and organizations.

This paper is a shortened version of a study undertaken by the Australian Institute of Criminology in 1982. The study's aim was to review the extent of sentencing disparity relating exclusively to drug offenders at the Federal level. Some 300 sentencing decisions decided between 1976 and 1980 were examined, and it was found that when drug type and quantity of drug were taken into account, together with a further discrete number of other factors, differences between sentences were very slight. In the course of the study a novel sentencing chart was devised and the present article describes the key features of the methodology used.

Abstract:

Collecting data on juvenile delinquency in the practice of Polish courtsThe model of proceeding with juveniles applicable in Poland assumes an in-depth knowledge of a juvenile. Knowing this allows us to make an accurate diagnosis, and thus to react in the right way. How does the court get to know a juvenile? How often do supporting institutions engage in this process? How does he assess evidence in the form of an environmental interview or a diagnostic opinion, and which one is used in the process of adjudication? I provide answers to these questions in this article. The basis for their granting were the results of my own research carried out in 2015–2016 at two institutions: Department of Criminology, Institute of Law Studies of the Polish Academy of Sciences and the Institute of Justice. These were both the research of juvenile case files and surveys of representatives of the judiciary — a nationwide survey and individual semi-structured qualitative interviews.

Abstract:

The acquittal leads – compared to other phenomena – a shadowy existence in German criminal law and criminological science. A research team from the Institute of Criminology in Tübingen investigated criminal proceedings where the accused were held in pretrial detention before eventually being acquitted and categorized and described the proceedings from various perspectives utilising a multidisciplinary approach. The article deals with the role of doubt in such proceedings and the way in which so-called “second class acquittals” are expressed in written judgements. Furthermore, this article, besides providing an overview of exemplary main results, aims to inspire the scholarly community to pay more attention to acquittal decisions taken in different parts of criminal procedures, also within a comparative perspective.

Abstract:

The publication of a previously unknown set of lectures delivered by Foucault in 1981 at Louvain's criminology institute constitutes a major revelation for legal and criminological scholars (Wrong‐Doing, Truth‐Telling: The Function of Avowal in Justice, 2014). The lecture material includes an extended discussion of the techniques used by Oedipus to establish the truth of his familial crime, a reflection on the beginnings of the inquisitorial justice system (which Foucault here argues paved the way for the scientific revolution), and analyses of contemporary forensic confessions. Throughout these meticulously edited lectures, the scientific and philosophical “inquiries” that revolutionized modern European knowledges are shown to be rooted in embodied practices of confession and avowal that go back to ancient Greece.

Abstract:

The dynamic variability of the modern world determines not only the need to adapt but also the ability to preserve and maintain the values of separate culture. Over the centuries, family is considered to be one of the core values. Family interaction with the society is undeniable. The family is the foundation of any society and the future of the state. Today's new socio-economic situation has an impact on the emotional atmosphere, quality and relationships within the family. Criminological research in family relationships is a complex problem, its environment and circumstances are an important factor in the individual's socialization. The role of the family is equally important both in the process of proper behavioural shaping and in the production of directed behaviour. The article provides an insight into the content of the studies of family criminology.The aim of the article is to describe the criminological framework of family relations based on special literature, research and practice showing the framework of family criminology. Theoretical guidelines, special literature, views and opinions of Latvian and foreign specialists have been analysed in order to assess the criminological aspects of the phenomenon.The author concludes that the knowledge of family criminology is useful, effective, concrete and practically feasible for the criminological studies of the family institute. This approach has a multi-sectoral nature.

Abstract:

This work brings a reflection on the theory of broken windows, seeing its applicability in the Brazilian legal system, given thehigh crime rate, which generates fear and insecurity. The hypothetical-deductive method was used in the methodology, analyzing from the general to the particular. The institute of criminology will be approached in a succinct manner, pointing out its concept and purposes, as well as in what differs from criminal law. After the brief introduction, the theory of broken windows will be discussed in order to under-stand it, emphasizing its origin and a parallel of its application in relation to disorder and criminality. We conclude the present article, demonstrating the solidification of the applicability of broken window theory in our Brazilian legal system.

Abstract:

This case study explored changes in seven in-service middle school science teachers’ understandings of project-based learning (PBL) environments after participating in a summer institute on PBL. Of particular interest was their participation in the institute as learners in a PBL unit exploring the effect of land use on water quality in the watershed. We investigated how well teachers were able to apply their understanding of PBL as they designed their own units on water quality in their watershed. Research questions focused the study on how participation in a summer teacher institute on PBL prepared middle school teachers to describe key features of project-based learning environments, and how well they were able to incorporate these features in PBL units. Data collection included a qualitative pre/post PBL survey, teachers’ watershed units, and field notes from the institute. Findings from the pre and post survey showed that teachers demonstrated a vague understanding of essential features of PBL environments pre institute and a detailed understanding of PBL post institute. Teachers’ units varied in the degrees to which PBL features were exhibited. Strengths of the units included driving questions and benchmark lessons. Shortcomings included few opportunities for student-directed investigation of sub-driving questions.

Abstract:

Purpose. To compare and analyze the trend of appearance of the pseudo-term ‘digital criminology’ in the science of criminology and prove that this is incorrect. Methodology: induction, deduction, synthesis, analysis, formal legal method, comparative legal method, logical method. Conclusions. The evolution of methods of committing crimes and instruments of crime does not always require the evolution of the science of criminology and the emergence of its varieties. You just have to assess the prospects of extrapolative ways and methods of proving the circumstances of the crimes in the era of digitalization of social relations, in terms of the provisions of modern criminal law and only criminal-legal research unit. The definition of ‘digital criminalistics’, which has recently appeared in science, actually misleads the scientific community with its novelty and originality, since such criminalistics in nature does not exist a priori. It is necessary to speak only about forensic or expert research of carriers of digital (electronic or computer) information. In criminalistics, it is logical to develop a new direction-the forensic study of electronic media of digital information and the use of computer expertise in establishing all the circumstances of the crime committed. And this is just a new section of forensic technology, studying a new subject of research for this naki. Here, the traditional forensic methodology should be applied, which will be aimed ‘atlinking’ the electronic carrier of digital information and the digital information itself to a specific crime and to a specific person. Scientific and practical significance. The research is aimed at orienting forensic theory and practice towards the study of specific objects and contributes to the fact that all these studies are further applicable to the practice of crime investigation, and not only for theoretical purposes.

Abstract:

The intention of this paper is to describe the organizational principles and indicate the results already achieved in the identification of war victims in Croatia. By 25 February 1993, 6, 493 victims had been identified. A model is proposed that could be used in the course of identification processes, examining the methods and principles of identification which have been complicated by the time interval of more than a year from the time of death, for a presumed number of several thousand (up to 14, 000) unidentified victims, possibly in mass graves. Identification is further complicated by the lack of ante-mortem medical and dental records and the incapacity to utilize more expensive methods of identification. Attention is drawn to a group of more complex cases examined at the Institute of Forensic Medicine and Criminology.

In the mid–20th century in Mexico there was a close link between collective housing production and the most important welfare state in the country. IMSS commenced its brief but active program of housing provision with its 1956 complex of almost 500 apartments, followed by its emblematic projects: the Santa Fe Unit (1957) and the Independence Unit (1960), with around 2,200 dwellings, each one placed among gardens. The agency’s apogee was ruled by a social justice mandate that contributed to having high quality living standards in its complexes.
