All [the] Violence that Happened Was Dudes: ” Gendered Perceptions of Neighborhood Safety and Strategies to Stay Safe in a Small to Mid-Sized City
Perceptions of neighborhood safety vary by demographic and neighborhood characteristics. While males and females have similar feelings about neighborhood safety, women are generally fearful of becoming a victim of sexual assault. Using in-depth interviews, we build on previous research by examining how boys and girls residing in frontline communities understand and navigate neighborhood risks. Drawing on the Socio-Ecological Model as an organizin…
Reengaging Criminology in Regulation and Governance: A Synergistic Research Agenda on Regulatory Guardianship
Recent literature calls for scholars to bridge the divide that has emerged between criminology and regulation and governance. In the current work, we propose that criminological opportunity theories provide one fruitful pathway to that end. Specifically, we introduce the notion of regulatory guardianship based on the concepts of guardians, guardian capability, and guardian willingness to intervene, and connect them to the regulation and governanc…
Decision Making in the Real World: Unpacking the Black Box of the Decision Process for Youth Violence
Criminologists typically test rational choice theory by examining the relationship between one aspect of decision making—the perceived costs and benefits of crime—and the likelihood of crime, primarily using (experimental) surveys that lack consideration of the neighborhood context. Building on decades of research in the risk and decision sciences, the current study utilizes broader models of decision making to qualitatively examine how youth liv…
Do police make you feel safe? A qualitative comparison of youth and youth service provider perspectives
Scholars have shown that age, race, and community context are consistent predictors of civilians’ perceptions of police and feelings of safety. Less is known about how young people residing in high-crime disadvantaged neighborhoods perceive police. Using in-depth interviews with 37 youth and adult service providers in Lansing, Michigan, this study examines whether and why young people feel the police increase or decrease their safety within their…
When guardians become offenders: Understanding guardian capability through the lens of corporate crime
Recent developments in routine activities theory have sought to conceptualize the notion of capable guardianship, as well as to broaden the application of the theory to the corporate crime context. Building on this work with systematically collected qualitative data, we examine the mechanisms in which offenders commit corporate financial fraud and identify the failures in guardianship. In addition to the unique dimensions of corporate crime alrea…

Integrating Criminological and Decision Research Theory: Implications for Understanding and Addressing Crime in Marginalized Communities
Minority groups are significantly overrepresented in crime. Theories of racial differences in crime developed using two separate and distinct approaches that highlight either increased exposure to criminogenic factors at the individual level or greater risk of crime due to disadvantaged neighborhood conditions. Neighborhood theories describe how structural disadvantage disrupts neighborhood social processes and produces oppositional street cultur…
A Routine Activities Analysis of White‐Collar Crime in Carbon Markets
Scholars recently called for increased analysis of opportunity structures that produce white‐collar crimes in legitimate business systems. In the current research, we use mental models, a tool from cognitive psychology, to describe opportunity structures for white‐collar crime in the European Emissions Trading System, the largest carbon market in the world. Specifically, we use routine activities theory to describe the convergence of motivated of…
Conservation criminology and the global trade in electronic waste: Applying a multi-disciplinary research framework
The global trade in electronic waste destined for recycling, disposal or reuse (E-waste) poses a significant risk to human health and the natural environment from improper recycling and disposal. However, in part due to the lack of regulatory attention, few empirical studies of this issue exist. In this paper, we fill this knowledge gap by applying a conservation criminology framework to E-waste. Specifically, we draw on criminology and criminal …
Applying a conservation-criminology framework to common-pool natural-resource issues
Protection and management of common-pool natural resources are an international focus of government agencies and nongovernmental organizations. There is concern that an emphasis on protection has inadvertently led to the disenfranchisement of local stakeholders by prohibiting access to natural resources that they have traditionally relied upon. Management of these resources by state actors without local input has exacerbated the social and econom…
Transnational white‐collar crime and risk: Lessons from the global trade in electronic waste
Research Summary Business transactions have increasingly been crossing national borders, thereby presenting greater opportunities for white‐collar crime and for the externalization of risk. The global economic crisis, resulting in part from the subprime mortgage scandal, is a prime example of this potential. To develop theoretical perspectives and practical interventions to prevent and respond to the global financial crisis, we consider similar i…
Introducing Conservation Criminology: Towards Interdisciplinary Scholarship on Environmental Crimes and Risks
Environmental crimes, noncompliance and risks create significant harm to the health of humans and the natural world. Yet, the field of criminology has historically shown relatively little interest in the topic. The emergence of environmental or green criminology over the past decade marks a shift in this trend, but attempts to define a unique area of study have been extensively criticized. In the following paper, we offer a conceptual framework, …
The Effect of the Imprisonment of Women Upon Their Children
URING 1967, 1,340 women were received into prison under sentence and a further 711 went to prison in default of payment of a fine imposed upon them. 1 In addition 2,837 women were remanded in custody either before trial or awaiting sentence who did not subsequently get a custodial sentence. Thus, during the year, on almost 5,000 occasions women saw the inside of a prison
Probability Learning in Step‐input Tracking
Six men and six women tracked stimuli that demanded responses of unequal probability. The control‐display relation was directionally incompatible. Half the subjects used their non‐preferred hand. Many large directional errors occurred in early practice and these were amended after a mean delay of 0·24 sec. With continued practice, small errors persisted mainly in responses of low probability but the mean amendment time fell to 0·11 sec. These err…
