The Department of Criminology, Law and Society focuses on the causes, manifestations, and consequences of criminal behavior; methods of controlling criminal behavior; and the relationships and interactions between law, social structure and cultural practices. Courses include overviews of American legal systems, forms of criminal behavior, legal theory, social science and the law, criminological theory, victimology, and regulatory issues, in addition to substantive areas of law such as family, criminal, environmental, immigration, procedural, and constitutional law. The Department of Criminology, Law and Society (CLS) has established itself as one of the nation's top programs in criminology, criminal justice, and legal studies. Established as a formal department with its own Ph.D. program in 1992 within the School of Social Ecology, CLS faculty have trained numerous undergraduate and graduate students over almost three decades. Graduates work in both the public and private sectors, and at colleges and universities around the country. The CLS curriculum offers a broad array of topics for both undergraduate and graduate study which are central to crime and its control, social policy, and the law. In keeping with one of the main tenets of Social Ecology, faculty and students approach these subjects from a multidisciplinary perspective. Learn more...

132. Australia Reports Lowest Number Of Homicides In Nine Years (11 Feb 1999) [Media Press release from the Australian Institute of criminology. http://www.aic.gov.au/media/990211.html

Skip to start of content Advanced search Home About ... Back Media Release Australia reports lowest number of homicides in nine years 11 February 1999 Last year Australia recorded the lowest number of homicides since the Australian Institute of Criminology began the National Homicide Monitoring Program in 1989. Preliminary analysis from the Australian Institute of Criminology for 1997/98 indicates that there were 297 homicide incidents and 311 homicide victims. In approximately 80 per cent of all homicide incidents the victim and the offender were known to each other. Homicides involving intimate partners comprised 23 per cent of all homicides last year. "These are the first findings from the latest collection by our Homicide Monitoring program. Given the high proportion of homicides which are family-related or where the victim and assailant were known to each other, it appears that violence is used too often to solve emotional issues", said AIC Director, Dr Adam Graycar. "The policy thrust to address such issues needs to be in terms of broad-based violence prevention and violence management." "The full figures will be released, and these issues discussed, at our 3rd National Outlook Symposium on Crime in Australia on 22-23 March in Canberra", Dr Graycar said.

Ogilvie highlights the three primary ways in which cyperstalking is conducted: email stalking; internet stalking; and computer stalking. She outlines three methods used to counter cyberstalking, all of which have varying degrees of success: personal protection; technical fixes; and legislation.

You are in: CRIMINAL MIND/ CRIMINAL PSYCHOLOGY CYBER-STALKING: OBSESSIONAL PURSUIT AND THE DIGITAL CRIMINAL By Wayne Petherick Introduction Though the legal recognition of stalking is a recent evolution, the behaviour that is involved is by no means a product of the 20 th century. It is known though that criminal behaviour is incredibly adaptive to new technologies, with credit card, mobile phone and computer fraud as examples. It is also acknowledged that stalking has now taken an on-line form, colloquially referred to as cyber-stalking. As the personal computer and the Internet bring the world into our homes, they provide access to a vast amount of information, and provide forums for individuals from all over the world to meet one another in a relatively anonymous environment. One example of these forums is the chat room where people from hundreds of countries may gather and meet, trade information and files, and chat about a range of topics from music to sex. Though this has bred a large number of international relationships, most of which prove harmless, it does present the possibility that ones on-line personality may become the target of unwanted attention. Cyberstalking, which is simply an extension of the physical form of stalking, is where the electronic mediums such as the Internet are used to pursue, harass or contact another in an unsolicited fashion. Most often, given the vast distances that the Internet spans, this behaviour will never manifest itself in the physical sense but this does not mean that the pursuit is any less distressing. There are a wide variety of means by which individuals may seek out and harass individuals even though they may not share the same geographic borders, and this may present a range of physical, emotional, and psychological consequences to the victim.

Researching Criminal Justice The Internet is an excellent supplement to, but not a replacement for, traditional library research when preparing research papers. On these pages you will find suggestions and links for conducting part of your research with the help of the World Wide Web. Remember, however, to do the most complete research and prepare the best paper possible, you must also visit the library and dig through the articles, books, and other sources found there. Also check the page on writing papers . If you are new to the Internet, consider Beginner's Central for a great tutorial to get you started. A NOTE ON FORMAT The style and format of a research paper varies depending on the audience to which the paper is addressed. If you are preparing a course term paper, your instructor may have specific requirements for the paper's length, style, reference sources, etc. Manuscripts being prepared for submission to academic journals must meet that journal's style guidelines, which are usually found in issues of the journal itself or by writing to the journal editor. If your eventual audience is an agency board of directors, a gathering of politicians (like a city council or county commission), or a group of citizens, you have a bit more leeway in the style, format, and manner of presentation (consider a Power Point presentation, for example).

140. Backfire: When Incarceration Increases Crime Examines the ways in which prison may have inadvertently affected crime rates. By Todd R. Clear, Professor and Associate Dean, School of criminology and Criminal Justice, Florida State University. http://www.doc.state.ok.us/DOCS/OCJRC/Ocjrc96/Ocjrc7.htm

Backfire: When Incarceration Increases Crime by Todd R. Clear, Ph.D. Florida State University Abstract This paper examines various ways in which prison may have inadvertently affected crime rates. The question is important because, even though levels of imprisonment increased fivefold since 1973, crime rates have not dropped proportionately during this period. I argue that the crime-reducing aspects of imprisonment are considerably negated by the crime-enhancing ones. The paper focuses on three crime-enhancing effects of imprisonment. First, replacement of co-offenders may account for the failure of prisons to reduce crime. Replacement also results in an earlier and more sustained recruitment of young people into criminal careers. Second, as more people acquire a grounded knowledge of prison life, the power of prison to deter crime through fear of the unknown is diminished. Extensive reality-based experience of prisons in certain communities exponentially increases the significance of this problem. Finally, social factors known to contribute to criminality such as broken families, inequality, and social disorder increase with high rates of imprisonment, especially in certain communities. INTRODUCTION In the popular point of view, prisons are thought of as crime fighting-devices: exposing offenders to prison reduces crime. This viewpoint began governing penal policy in the early 1970s; since then, we have increased the size of our prison population fivefold.
