In recent years, the idea of emergence, which suggests that
observed patterns in behavior and events are not fully reductive
and stem from complex lower-level interactions, has begun to take
hold in the social sciences. Criminologists have started to use
this framework to improve our general understanding of the etiology
of crime and criminal behavior. When Crime Appears: The Role of
Emergence is concerned with our ability to make sense of the
complex underpinnings of the end-stage patterns and events that we
see in studying crime and offers an early narrative on the concept
of emergence as it pertains to criminological research.
Collectively, the chapters in this volume provide a sense of why
the emergence framework could be useful, outlines its core
conceptual properties, provides some examples of its potential
application, and presents some discussion of methodological and
analytic issues related to its adoption.
