Description

Explore a critical examination of global crime trends in The Myth of the 'Crime Decline'. Part of the Routledge Studies in Crime and Society series, this book investigates the statistical claims regarding declining crime rates in many Western countries over the last twenty years. While many reports suggest a profound trend of decreasing crime, this text asks necessary questions about the data used to support these findings. It provides a deep look into how data sources are used and the context required to understand them truly. By looking at the wider socio-economic and politico-cultural environments, this book helps readers understand the factors surrounding reported changes in crime and harm. This work is an essential resource for those studying law, sociology, and criminology who want to look beyond surface-level statistics. It offers a detailed perspective on the continuity and change in crime patterns, making it a valuable addition to any academic or professional library focused on crime and society.
