Abstract:
The development of ‘Australian criminology’has been the subject of some comment in the last decade, in common with a recent interest internationally in the formation of the discipline. An influential account by Carson and O'Malley (1989) placed much emphasis on the erosion of criminology's critical potential by a mix of political, intellectual and professional currents in post-war Australia. On the basis of a review of evidence in the papers of Sir John Barry, it is argued here that the establishment of Australia's first academic criminology department, at the University of Melbourne, was char

Abstract:
As part of the Australian university sector, criminologists have been encouraged to find commercial clients for their skills and products. This paper examines the implications for the future development of criminology in Australia of changing patterns of Commonwealth, State and non-government organisation funding. It explores what might happen to criminology if the entrepreneurial periphery gains a tighter purchase on the academic core.

In the list of Australian literary contribution, Gregory David Roberts draws a number of generic conventions to produce his noteworthy, Shantaram. The novel has acquired certain academic considerations also. Cosmopolitanism influences prominently in the novel which has allows it to transcend national boundaries. The novel is anomalous in the Australian literary landscape when considered its popularity. The entrepreneurial approach of Roberts to promote his writing which is closely bounded by criminology and its persona impact the ongoing success of the novel in Australia and other countries. T

AbstractThe emergence of conservation criminology over the past decade provides a unique insight into patterns of wildlife crime. Wildlife crime has a dramatic impact on many vulnerable species and represents a significant challenge to the management of protected areas around the world. This paper contributes to the field of conservation criminology by examining the travel patterns of fishing poachers in the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park in Australia. The results demonstrate that distance is a key feature of offender target selection, reflecting the established environmental criminology conce

As race scholars and criminologists we are attuned to Du Bois’s (2007: 106) still meaningful injunction to ‘oppose this national racket of railroading to jails and chain gangs the poor, the friendless and the Black’. Yet we have become concerned that criminology seems rather inured to the long-standing and deeply entrenched patterns of race and criminal justice which characterize many high-income countries, and certainly England and Wales and Australia, which are the geographical focus of this Special Issue of Theoretical Criminology.

Abstract:
The proliferation of social media in the ‘post-broadcast era’ has profoundly altered the terrain for researchers to produce public scholarship and engage with the public. To date, however, the impact of social media on public criminology has not been subject to empirical inquiry. Drawing from a dataset of 116 surveys and nine interviews, our mixed-methods study addresses this opening in the literature by examining how criminologists in Australia and New Zealand have employed social media to engage in public criminology.

‘Newsmaking criminology’, as described by Barak, is the process by which criminologists contribute to the generation of ‘newsworthy’ media content about crime and justice, often through their engagement with broadcast and other news media. While newsmaking criminological practices have been the subject of detailed practitioner testimonials and theoretical treatise, there has been scarce empirical research on newsmaking criminology, particularly in relation to countries outside of the United States and United Kingdom.

Abstract:
Despite decades of research, there is no consensus as to the factors that explain the association between drug use and criminal behaviour. While the evolving sophistication in research methodology has identified factors that are associated with involvement in both drug use and crime, exploration of the idiosyncratic factors that contribute to initiation, maintenance and desistence in drug use and criminal behaviour over time, across culture and social context remains unknown.

The prediction of risk of violent and sexual reoffending is very important for the mental health and correctional practitioners making treatment decisions and providing opinions to the courts. Currently, Australian practitioners use risk assessments that were developed in other countries despite little evidence that they can be validly used locally, especially with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Both scholars and the courts have expressed concern about the use of data generated with these assessments to make important decisions about risk and risk management. The purpose of the

Abstract:
The paradoxical character of fire is perfectly captured by the juxtaposition between the initial ease and excitement of lighting fires, and fire’s destructive and uncontrollable nature. Australia is fire prone with its hot, dry climate, volatile vegetation and urban sprawl surrounded by bushland. Since an estimated 50% of fires lit in Australia are deliberate (Stanley & Read, 2016) the problem of intentional firesetting cannot be overstated. This thesis argues that youth firesetting requires both macro- and microlevel approaches to appreciate the complexities of the problem, and aims to identi

In order to reduce the harms associated with cannabis, and in line with the national harm minimisation framework, the Western Australia (WA) Cannabis Infringement Notice (CIN) scheme commenced in 2004.

Abstract:
In advanced liberal democracies, proportionately responding to radical environmental protest that targets lawful business operations including those considered key parts of the civil infrastructure (such as those essential services involved in energy production) is a “wicked problem” that poses ongoing challenges, not least in attempting to balance rights of protest and free speech against securing essential services. The policing of protest continues to be controversial. Environmentalism and environmental activism is multi-faceted and diverse; it is no one thing and comes with a rich history.
