Download or read book International Comparison of Crime and Victimization written by Helmut Kury and published by De Sitter Publications. This book was released on 2001 with total page 169 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume is dedicated to one of the largest series of victim surveys ever conducted: the International Crime (Victim) Survey (1989, 1992, and 2000). Surveys have been carried out in 24 industrialized countries since 1989, and in 46 cities in developing countries and countries in transition. The ICVS has made an important contribution to our understanding of crime rates across many regions. The United Nations has placed much emphasis on the development, analysis, and policy use of crime and criminal justice information. The ICVS is an important component of such policy and most countries use surveys for identifying groups and areas at risk, developing crime prevention policies and assessing programs. Key findings are discussed in the context of social, economic, and political changes. Most importantly, these articles indicate that comparative projects such as the ICVS are emerging as key players in understanding and linking issues of safety and development and that measuring levels of safety is crucial for human development.

Download or read book The Praeger Handbook of Victimology written by Janet K. Wilson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2009-08-25 with total page 367 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work is the first interdisciplinary compilation of entries related to the crime victim to encompass the breadth of the 70-year-old discipline of victimology. The Praeger Handbook of Victimology is the first full-scale reference to encompass the full scope of the discipline of victim studies, marking its evolution from an initial focus on homicide, child abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence to a more wide-ranging modern interpretation that includes hate crimes, terrorism, and cyber crimes such as online bullying, stalking, and identity theft. The Praeger Handbook of Victimology offers an up-to-date portrait of its field, including the latest research from criminal justice studies, feminist studies, and other disciplines, as well as the changing views of the victim from law enforcement and the public at large. The nearly 200 alphabetically organized entries cover everything from terminology unique to the field to victimizations relative to specific crimes to the extension of crime victim rights and victim interactions with the criminal justice system. Victims' advocates, legal professionals, students, researchers, or anyone fascinated by the impact of crime on society will find this a uniquely informative resource.

Book excerpt: This report presents the key findings of the 2004/2005 International Crime Victims Survey (ICVS) together with the results of the European Survey on Crime and Safety (EU ICS). The surveys cover 30 countries and 33 capital or main cities. Where appropriate, the results are compared with those of the four earlier ICVS surveys, conducted in 1989, 1992, 1996 and 2000. The report presents data from the following 30 countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Denmark, England & Wales, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Mexico, the Netherlands, New Zealand, Northern Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Scotland, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA. Also data from 33 main cities of a selection of developed and developing countries are presented including cities from Argentina, Brazil, Peru, South Africa, Hong Kong-China and Cambodia. The report shows how individual countries and cities compare with each other in relation to crime victimisation rates for ten types of common crimes including car theft, household burglary, robbery, assaults and sexual offences. Where possible, comparisons are also made regarding trends in crime over time in various countries. Besides, the levels of some non-conventional crimes such as corruption, internetbased fraud and hate crimes are addressed as well. The report also gives information on related topics such as reporting to the police, fear of crime, crime prevention measures and opinions about the police and sentencing.

This book provides a overview of the importance of the role of the victim in the criminal justice system, with an analysis of the different theoretical perspectives within victimology. explores the relationship between victimisation and feminism with particular focus on domestic and sexual violence. analyses criminal justice policy and service delivery in relation to victims of crime, looking at developments within the UK and international perspectives. This handbook will be fundamental reading for students and academics studying victims and victimology and an essential reference tool for those working within the victim support environment.
