Beschreibung:
David Weisburd is Walter E. Meyer Professor of Law and Criminal Justice and Director of the Institute of Criminology of the Hebrew University Faculty of Law and Professor of Criminology and Criminal Justice at the University of Maryland, College Park. Elizabeth Groff is Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice at Temple University.Sue-Ming Yang is Assistant Professor of Criminal Justice at Georgia State University.
David Weisburd, Elizabeth Groff, and Sue-Ming Yang present a new way of looking at crime by examining why specific streets in a city have specific crime trends over time. Reorienting the study of crime by focusing not on individuals and communities, but on small units of geography, the authors identify a large group of possible crime risk and protective factors for street segments and an array of interventions that could be implemented to address them. A groundbreaking book, The Criminology of Place radically alters traditional thinking about the crime problem and what we should do about it.
