YOUR FIRST FIVE
Your First Five Crime Studies of December 14
Today’s crime studies include work on the visual symbolism of policing
These new criminology and criminal justice studies were published recently by journals I monitor.
1. The Prison Bust: Declining carceral capacity in an era of mass incarceration, published in Punishment & Society.
2. Police station meaning, closure and (in)visibility, published in Policing and Society.
3. Security, Emotions and Radical Right Populism: Beyond a ‘Flaunting of the Low’?, published in The British Journal of Criminology.
4. The Implications of Stress Among Correctional Officers: A Summary of the Risks and Promising Intervention Strategies, published in International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology.
5. Static-99R Norms and Cross-Cultural Validity for Australian Aboriginal and Non-Aboriginal Men Convicted of Sexual Offences, published in Sexual Abuse.
I might cover some of these studies further in Understanding Crime. If one sounds interesting or important, let me know in the comments. Right now, I’m considering number 2.
