Criminologists on Terrorism and Homeland Security
This volume presents 19 original essays addressing what is widely regarded as the most serious problem confronting America today and for years to come – terrorism – from the unique perspective of criminology.

Knocking on the Ivory Tower's Door
This article reports the results of an investigation involving a select number of former prisoners with completed PhDs, who applied for work as tenure-track criminology/criminal justice professors. It attempts to place into context the literature on ex-convicts’ employment, the hiring process at academic institutions, and the experiences of ex-convicts with PhDs competing for academic jobs at colleges and universities. The findings are based on t…

Self‐reported Gang Involvement and Officially Recorded Delinquency
Field studies and survey research have sometimes been critical of the utility of law enforcement data on gang activity. Survey information on gang involvement in early adolescence is linked to delinquent offending as recorded by the Chicago Police Department over a five‐year period. Self‐reported gang involvement is found to be a significant correlate of the probability of officially recorded delinquency even when ethnicity, prior self‐reported o…

The Politics of Readjustment
The Logic of Definition in Criminology
This article is aimed at clarifying some of the problems in gang definition by examination of the logic of definition. Definitions are considered in terms of various purposes as well as lexical and stipulative definitional types. Methods of stipulative definition that have been tangled together in gang research and theory are identified as analytic definition and synthetic definition, with the latter including correlational, causal, and definitio…

Gang Homicide, Delinquency, and Community
Analysis of community‐level data on community areas in Chicago substantiates two conceptual differences: the first. between gang crime and delinquency as community‐level phenomena; and the second, between theoretical associations of each of the former to community‐area patterns of social disorganization and poverty. One pattern is more common in Chicago's Hispanic communities; the other, in Chicago's black communities. Five measures of the qualit…

Khaki-Collar Crime
Utility and Collectivity
This paper is an attempt to link certain public choice theories with empirical analysis of citizen preferences. We begin with a reasonably clear, or at least strong, relation: cities with more Irish, Catholic, and foreign-born residents spend more through their municipal budgets. The relation holds across three data sets for American cities: for 51 cities from 1880 to 1968, for 154 cities in 1903, and for 661 citics in 1960. Why? Clark tested and…
