Worldwide, young men commit the most violent crimes. How should we deal with them?

In an idyllic Swiss village, young men with histories of often-violent crime are being taught how to behave better.

The alternative to prison is based on the hope that broken people can be changed. It's expensive – but staffers say it is cheaper in the long run.

The De Gruyter Handbook of Digital Criminology edited by Mareile Kaufmann and Heidi Mork Lomell is now published including my chapter on Artificial Intelligence in which I address both the use in criminal justice and policing and how crime is changing as a result of AI

Crime and Punishment in the Future Internet by Sanja Milivojevic, 2021

Crime and Punishment in the Future Internet is an examination of the development and impact of digital frontier technologies (DFTs) such as Artificial Intelligence, the Internet of things, autonomous mobile robots, and blockchain on offending, crime control, the criminal justice system, and the discipline of criminology.

It poses criminological, legal, ethical, and policy questions linked to such development and anticipates the impact of DFTs on crime and offending. It forestalls their wide-ranging consequences, including the proliferation of new types of vulnerability, policing and other mechanisms of social control, and the threat of pervasive and intrusive surveillance. Two key concerns lie at the heart of this volume. First, the book investigates the origins and development of emerging DFTs and their interactions with criminal behaviour, crime prevention, victimisation, and crime control. It also investigates the future advances and likely impact of such processes on a range of social actors: citizens, non-citizens, offenders, victims of crime, judiciary and law enforcement, media, NGOs. This book does not adopt technological determinism that suggests technology alone drives social development. Yet, while it is impossible to know where the emerging technologies are taking us, there is no doubt that DFTs will shape the way we engage with and experience criminal behaviour in the twenty-first century. As such, this book starts the conversation about a range of essential topics that this expansion brings to social sciences, and begins to decipher challenges we will be facing in the future. An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to those engaged with criminology, sociology, politics, policymaking, and all those interested in the impact of DFTs on the criminal justice system

Crime without punishment: can a different kind of justice offer something more to sexual assault survivors?

Proponents of restorative justice say it can offer a different type of justice, but is it a soft option for a serious crime? And what does justice mean for victim-survivors?

Would you advise a loved one to report a sexual assault? It’s a question that exposes a failing justice system

Ahead of an Australian government review into justice responses to sexual violence, our series asks why the system retraumatises victims and delivers poor outcomes

Hello! I am an associate professor of sociology at Fitchburg State University in Massachusetts (USA).

I teach mostly Intro to Sociology, Criminology, Law and Society, and Methods.

My general areas of professional interest have included qualitative research, stigma, firearms ownership and use, and legal consciousness. But lately I’ve been expanding into other areas as well, such as medical sociology.

What could #metascience learn from #criminology for the prevention of #researchmisconduct and #researchintegrity violations? In a seminar at the Netherlands Institute for the Study of Crime and Law Enforcement (NSCR), I discussed with researchers in criminology how theories and findings from the field may be applied in the field of meta research.

This is a a good reminder for Police, Politicians, the Public and Media about leaping to conclusions - particularly about criminal motives.

Investigations take time and with this motives tends to be the last fact that is established unless a confession can be extracted from the alleged offender.

Unfortunately with antisemitism, due to the unprecedented level of Israeli State interest and foreign interferences (particularly with information wars to deteriorate political and public sentiment towards Palestinians), motives aren’t as straight forward.

In "Gambling outlets as agents of local area disorganization: Crime and local institutions, the case of the UK", Neli Demireva and Sergio Lo Iacono show that gambling outlets are significantly and positively associated with different types of crime even when controlling for other businesses, the areas’ demographic and socio-economic characteristics
