Examining Postdisaster Behavior Through a Criminological Lens: A Look at Property Crime
Disaster sociology has a rich and undeniably valuable history. Among other things, it has revealed much about the behavior of disaster survivors. In recent years, criminologists have turned their attention and the discipline's theories, methods, and data sources to understanding behavior in the wake of disasters and have come to a number of additional and sometimes different conclusions than did sociologists. In this article, we examine property …
Therapeutic Jurisprudence in Swift and Certain Probation

This study examines therapeutic jurisprudence in the context of a HOPE-based probation program called Swift and Certain probation. We observed status hearings and surveyed participant…

The Encyclopedia of Women and Crime
According to the US Department of Justice, the number of females in the correctional population more than doubled between 1986 and 1997, and between 1990 and 2000 the number of adult female inmates increased at a faster rate than that of men. This is a reference book on the subject of women and crime, a field of study growing in interest since the late 1960s. Consisting of over 240 detailed entries, it is international in scope and covers women a…
Perfecting Lessons Learned for Criminal Justice Online Graduate Education: Reflection, Integration, and Application
Criminal justice programs are seeing an increase in the number of online classes both at the graduate and undergraduate levels. At the graduate level, criminal justice online education requires students to achieve mastery of higher ordered thinking and advanced analytic skills. Some students may believe that online education is simply a matter of reading postings and writing simple responses to queries. In order to counter the view that modern on…
Changes and Challenges in Crime and Criminal Justice After Disaster
While prosocial behavior is widely observable after disaster, there is undeniable evidence that antisocial behavior also occurs in the immediate and longer term aftermath of disaster. We begin by examining the crime that occurred in New Orleans in the immediate wake of Katrina and the circumstances that facilitated it. We also take a longer term look at one of New Orleans' most intractable crime problems, that of murder. We explore Katrina's dire…

Violent entertainment and cooperative behavior: Examining media violence effects on cooperation in a primarily Hispanic sample
The impact of violent entertainment on viewer behavior remains disputed in the academic community. Although most studies focus on negative outcomes such as aggression, some studies also consider whether violent entertainment may reduce positive behaviors such as cooperation. The current article describes 2 studies of violent TV influences on cooperative behavior. The first study examined whether exposure to violent TV shows impacted cooperative b…
Comfortably numb or just yet another movie? Media violence exposure does not reduce viewer empathy for victims of real violence among primarily Hispanic viewers
Continued debate exists regarding the impact of media violence exposure on viewers’ thoughts and behaviors. One facet of this debate has focused on the possibility that viewing media violence may desensitize viewers to the suffering of others and reduce their empathy. In the current study, 238 mostly Hispanic, young adults were randomized to watch either a violent or nonviolent TV show. Participants also watched clips of either fictional victims …

School Kids and Oil Rigs: Two More Pieces of the Post-Katrina Puzzle in New Orleans
Shortly after Hurricane Katrina's landfall in August 2005 and the reports of rampant looting of businesses in the city, we became curious about the extent of Katrina looting as compared to that after other major storms that hit New Orleans in 1947 and in 1965. Using burglary as a proxy variable for looting, we discovered that the burglary rates in the month before and the month after Katrina were significantly higher than those before and after t…
The Social Construction of Deviance, Conflict and the Criminalization of Midwives, New Orleans: 1940S and 1950s
Midwives in mid-twentieth-century New Orleans went from practicing unhindered to being demonized in the media and targeted by the criminal justice system, thanks to the actions of three concerned groups. After the prosecution of female midwives began and their practice was suppressed, male medical doctors gained control over the provision of abortions in the city as well as the supervision of midwifery. Employing content analysis, we find that th…
