Humanistic Criminology
Kropotkin's extensive writings on criminological issues have been almost totally neglected. Through critical historical and macro-structural analyses Kropotkin assessed institutional arrangements disclosing how they were or were not meeting human needs. Our exploration focuses on Kropotkin's theoretical contributions, his feelings-based criminology and his extremely insightful dualistic conceptualization of "human nature". His contributions to pe…
The Struggle to be Human
The Communal Experience
original impulse for groups to separate from society and establish communities of their own was religious. Though the religious side of this drive toward separation remains strong, the last two centuries have seen the appearance of secular communities with a socialist or anarchist orientation. In The Communal Experience, nominated for a National Book Award in 1973, Laurence Veysey explores the close resemblances between the secular and religious …
The Coming Redefinitions of Crime
Crime's existence and substance are dependent upon institutionalization of the principle of legality. Crime is a denial of a prospectively defined legal right. A right is a legally guaranteed future access to a valued resource. Crime and penal sanction create a vicious cycle of appropriation. Breaking through this cycle requires an understanding of the structural concomitants of appropriation and law. An analysis of hierarchy, stratification, dif…
Citizen Interviews, Organizational Feedback, and Police-Community Relations Decisions
Police-community relations programs are intended to be long-range, full-scale efforts to acquaint the police and the community with each other's problems and to stimulate action aimed at solving problems; they have been criticized, however, as being concerned mainly with raising the professional image of the police in the minds of the public (President's Commission, 1967a: 100). In some ways, they seem to have functioned to slow down change and t…
Polygraph and Interview Validation of Self-Reported Deviant Behavior
In the study of deviant behavior, current heavy reliance upon data from anonymous questionnaires demands concern for data validity. Responses to anonymous questionnaires involving a wide range of deviant behavioral items, including the Dentler-Monroe and NyeShort delinquency scale items, were compared to responses made during a follow-up interview and polygraph examination. The overall accuracy of the total questionnaire was high although results…
