This is the first comprehensive bibliography that deals with
comparative criminology and other signficant works in the field
dating from the 1960s. The guide covers 500 studies on crime, law,
and social control in two or more cultures. The volume is organized
into three main sections: meaning and measurement in criminology,
cross-national crime rates, and social control and penal policies.
The work is intended for students, for scholars and professionals,
and for all researchers concerned with criminal justice studies
around the world. The bibliography includes a preface, eleven
chapters on topics of major importance, appendices, and author and
subject indexes. The chapters deal with general issues in
comparative criminology, cross-national data, perceptions of crime,
violent crime, crimes against property, economic and political
crime, transnational corporate crime, correlates of crime,
underdevelopment and modernization, social control and dispute
resolution, and criminal justice and penal policies. The appendices
point to useful sources for further research. In addition, a full
author and subject index is provided.
