As an innovation over previous research, this project evaluates connective patriarchy and patrilineal familism as a …
The Crime-Control Effect of Incarceration
Research Summary: Several prominent empirical studies estimate models of a constant proportional effect of prison on crime, finding that effect is substantial and negative. A separate literature argues against the crime-reducing effect of prison but mainly on theoretical grounds. This second literature suggests that the elasticity of the prison/crime relationship is not constant. We provide a model that nests these two literatures. Using data fro…
