Crime Research Update: October 30

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

Oct 31, 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 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.
