Studying neighborhood crime across different macro spatial scales: The case of robbery in 4 cities

Whereas there is a burgeoning literature focusing on the spatial distribution of crime events across neighborhoods or micro-geographic units in a specific city, the present study expands this line of research by selecting four cities that vary across two macro-spatial dimensions: population in the micro-environment, and population in the broader macro-environment. We assess the relationship between measures constructed at different spatial scales and robbery rates in blocks in four cities: 1) San Francisco (high in micro- and macro-environment population); 2) Honolulu (high in micro- but low in macro-environment population); 3) Los Angeles (low in micro- but high in macro-environment population); 4) Sacramento (low in micro- and macro-environment population). Whereas the socio-demographic characteristics of residents further than ½ mile away do not impact robbery rates, the number of people up to 2.5 miles away are related to robbery rates, especially in the two cities with smaller micro-environment population, implying a larger spatial scale than is often considered. The results show that coefficient estimates differ somewhat more between cities differing in micro-environment population compared to those differing based on macro-environment population. It is therefore necessary to consider the broader macro-environment even when focusing on the level of crime across neighborhoods or micro-geographic units within an area.     

Breaking Bad,Making Good: Notes on a Televisual Tourist Industry

This article explores emerging intersections between the consumption of mediated popular culture and the real and imagined topographies within which those representations are framed. Through an examination of the ‘televisual tourism’ centred around the successful TV series Breaking Bad, we scrutinise the multiple modes of sensorial and embodied travel experience enjoyed by fans of the show as they consume their way around the show’s sites, scenes and tastes in the city of Albuquerque. This exploitation of media textuality through fan tourism is, we suggest, centred upon a carefully managed commodification of crime, criminality and transgression.

Unemployment and crime: A neighborhood level panel data approach

Twenty-five years ago, David Cantor and Kenneth Land presented a model of the relationship between unemployment and crime. This model showed the complexity of this seemingly simple relationship. Namely, there are two independent and counteracting effects from unemployment that affect crime: motivation and guardianship. In their analysis, Cantor and Land found that the guardianship effect dominates the motivation effect, but subsequent research has questioned this result. In this paper, the unemployment and crime relationship is tested using a neighborhood level hybrid modeling approach. Such a method allows for the nuances of Cantor and Land’s model to be tested at a fine ecological resolution for the first time. It is found that both motivation and guardianship matter for crime, but at different time frames: motivation matters in the long-run whereas guardianship matters in the short-run, similar to what Cantor and Land hypothesized.     

刑法解释限度理论“关联概念”新辨析

刑法学界并没有认真对待刑法解释限度之理论问题。对于刑法解释限度理论中关联概念的探讨和运用还仅仅停留在抽象性、模糊性的权利话语或道德话语层面,这在很大程度上消减了对刑法解释限度的论证力和合理性,同时也是导致刑法解释限度理论混乱的根本原因。鉴于此,为了深入地厘清解释限度不同理论之关系,有必要对解释限度理论之关联概念进行本源意义上之探究。     

大学生失恋诱发的犯罪危机及其对策分析

大学生恋爱是高校客观存在的普遍现象。有恋爱就有失恋的可能,近年来,大学生因失恋走上犯罪道路的案例不计其数。冲动、不成熟的身心特点使得大学生极易采取过激行为发泄心中愤懑;尚未形成正确世界观、人生观和价值观的大学生们很难周全地考虑问题,预料不到违法犯罪行为的严重后果。倘若帮助大学生树立正确的恋爱认识,增强大学生法律意识,给予他们足够的关爱和引导,相信因失恋而诱发的犯罪危机会逐渐减少,更加和谐、安全的校园环境和社会环境指日可待。     

当代中国"寻租型"职务犯罪衍生机理与控制对策

寻租型职务犯罪是一种新型的职务犯罪形式,其衍生是多元因素共同作用的结果,资源的国家配置体制是其制度基础,经济转轨时期价值观念的异变以及配套教育机制、激励机制的滞后与缺失而导致的公职人员抵御能力的下降是其内在动因,而改革中的一系列制度缺陷而创造的寻租机会使犯罪得以完成.从犯罪预防与控制的角度出发,将这些因素区分为可控因素、不可控因素和可调整因素,运用不同的对策加以抑制,是预防和控制犯罪的关键.     

违规销售“家电下乡标识卡”的刑法学分析

违规销售家电下乡标识卡,利用标识卡骗取财政补贴的行为,以非法经营罪定性,不符罪刑法定原则,不符该罪谦抑使用要求,也难被该罪构成要件所涵括;以诈骗罪定性,忽视法益保护次序,不利司法效率价值,造成量刑反制定罪错误;以伪造、倒卖伪造的有价票证罪定性,则能合理确定罪数、犯罪形态、实现罪责刑相适应、契合法典对该罪名的价值主张。     

敲诈勒索罪客观方面解构

通过对恐吓行为的解构发现，行为人具有占有财产的非道义性、依可以支配的事态使被害人产生自身利益受制于行为人的认识，是成立恐吓行为的关键；不具备该条件者，不成立敲诈勒索罪。
