My new book Crime and Civilization was published last month. Today I learned that it will be available as audiobook from 25 Feb 2025! For more info about the content and the print/ebook version see: global.oup.com/academic/pro...

Happy to report that my new book “Crime and Civilization” will be published this week. The book offers a new interpretation on the origins of criminology as a data-driven intellectual field. The first chapter is open for a month. academic.oup.com/book/58687/c...

“Discovery of Hidden Crime” (2011) approached the history of 20th century criminology from data perspective: why the crime survey emerged, and how it impacted substantial thought. The book is now open access at OUP web page! academic.oup.com/book/9672

The data of the 3rd sweep of the International Self-Report Delinquency Study is now open and available in Harvard Dataverse. doi.org/doi:10.7910/...
