Crime Research Update: October 9

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

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

---

Using Restorative Justice to Respond to and Prevent Sexual Harm: A Qualitative Study of Formal Practices in Six Countries

Journal: Journal of Interpersonal Violence
Keywords: assault, violence, sexual violence, justice, evidence, restorative
Geography: [unsupported at the moment]
Author info: Laurie M. Graham (University of Maryland–Baltimore, USA) [+3 other authors]

I publish tip sheets like this one on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The paywall on these paid tip sheets will be lifted a week after their initial publication.

If your interests or work deadlines mean you can't wait until next week for this week's research, consider becoming 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.”
