Crime Research Update: November 11

A directory of recent research, organized by crime type and criminal justice/legal system stage

Nov 12, 2024

Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is The Art of Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you think and write about crime.

Use this tip sheet to craft explanations informed by the latest research. It's an experimental directory of new crime research published by the academic journals that I monitor.

Today's directory contains links to studies published online in the last few days, including this one:

“I don’t like guns but having one in Winnipeg right now would feel safer”: Crime, liquor theft, and online fantasies of punishment and control
Journal: Crime, Media, Culture: An International Journal
Keywords: theft, digital, penal, punishment
Geography: [unsupported at the moment]
Author info: Katharina Maier (The University of Winnipeg, Canada) [+1 other author]

I publish tip sheets like this one three times per week, usually on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. These paid tip sheets get unlocked a week after their initial publication, and free subscribers will get notified by email. (So sign up if you haven’t!)

But what if your situation means you can't wait until next week for this week's research? In that case, become a paid subscriber to get three updates per week of the latest research.

You’ll find today’s new research below, sorted by two broad categories: crime type and criminal justice/legal system stage. Research that doesn’t get sorted into those categories follows under “Unsorted Research.”
