Conducting research into crime and criminal justice carries unique challenges. This Handbook focuses on the application of 'methods' to address the core substantive questions that currently motivate contemporary criminological research. It maps a canon of methods that are more elaborated than in most other fields of social science, and the intellectual terrain of research problems with which criminologists are routinely confronted.





Drawing on exemplary studies, chapters in each section illustrate the techniques (qualitative and quantitative) that are commonly applied in empirical studies, as well as the logic of criminological enquiry. Organized into five sections, each prefaced by an editorial introduction, the Handbook covers:





* Crime and Criminals


* Contextualizing Crimes in Space and Time: Networks, Communities and Culture


* Perceptual Dimensions of Crime


* Criminal Justice Systems: Organizations and Institutions


* Preventing Crime and Improving Justice





Edited by leaders in the field of criminological research, and with contributions from internationally renowned experts, The SAGE Handbook of Criminological Research Methods is set to become the definitive resource for postgraduates, researchers and academics in criminology, criminal justice, policing, law, and sociology.





David Gadd is Professor of Criminology at Manchester University School of Law where he is also Director of the Centre for Criminology and Criminal Justice.





Susanne Karstedt has a Chair in Criminology and Criminological Justice at the University of Leeds.





Steven F. Messner is Distinguished Teaching Professor of Sociology, University at Albany, State University of New York.
