Abstract:
This is a Nigerian study, which initially aimed to examine armed robbery culture and the youth subculture. With the employment of subcultural theory, the study became intellectually unviable in explaining the primary data. A replacement was made by seeking recourse to anomie-strain theory and control theory to explain the data. Presently, the main aim of this study is to examine the involvement of youths in armed robbery. Specifically, the study will look at armed robbery from the point of view of offenders and the factors responsible for their crime.Armed robbery is a type of robbery aided by

Abstract:
The current paper addresses the mobility and willingness to travel of robbery offenders. A five-sector robbery typology was constructed, consisting of: personal robbery, commercial robbery, carjacking robbery, home-invasion robbery, and robbery by sudden snatching. Defining mobility as the straight-line distance between the offender's home residence and the location of the robbery offense, the extent of criminal mobility for each type of robbery offense was analyzed.

Abstract:
This thesis has investigated the offence of robbery. Specifically, the semi-systematic review analysed commercial armed robbery, grouping offenders in terms of an apparent scale of professionalism to amateurism. Within armed robbery, target hardening strategies appear to have reduced opportunities for professionals, with a corresponding increase in amateur armed robbers fuelled by drug habits. The empirical study found that levels of interaction used by an offender with a victim increased with offender age. Interaction was lower for a robbery committed in an external location and for offenders

Abstract:
Case linkage uses crime scene behaviours to identify series of crimes committed by the same offender. The research presented here tests the underlying assumptions of case linkage (behavioural consistency and behavioural distinctiveness) by comparing the behavioural similarity of linked pairs of offences (i.e. two offences committed by the same offender) and unlinked pairs of offences (i.e. two offences committed by different offenders). It was hypothesised that linked pairs would be more behaviourally similar than unlinked pairs thereby providing evidence for these two assumptions. Logistic re

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with explaining spatio-temporal patterns in street robbery through the lens of environmental criminology. The research question ‘what makes a place criminogenic for street robbery at some times and not others?’ is used to frame seven hypotheses. These centre on some of the features of the natural and built environment that can be considered criminogenic (i.e. crime producing). Specifically, the hypotheses test the time-varying influence of darkness, weather conditions, and the use of land by different groups of victims. Through a variety of statistical methods, and dat

Abstract:
The crime of in-transit robbery is a sub-specie of the common law crime of robbery, which in essence is a crime of theft with violence. Robbery had evolved from begging, where beggars would harass their victims for money or items of value and then elevating their begging efforts to threats of violence, and in certain instances the usage of physical violence to solicit alms. As soon as road transport became prominent in society, the incidence of in-transit robbery increased where violence was used to overcome any form of resistance from the victim. During sea-faring transportation, piracy occur

Abstract:
This thesis brings together all that is currently known of early medieval grave reopening in northern and western Europe. It investigates in detail an intensive outbreak of grave-robbery in 6th-7th century Kent. This is closely related to the same phenomenon in Merovingia: an example of the import of not only material goods but also a distinctive cultural practice. Limited numbers of similar robbing episodes, affecting a much smaller proportion of graves in each cemetery, are also identified elsewhere in Anglo-Saxon England.

Public representation of highwaymen and footpads in the press spawned a climate of fear in London.  Descriptions of the violence that highwaymen and footpads employed in the course of their crimes generated this fear.  Violence set them apart from other non- or less-violent thefts that occurred in much greater numbers in the capital, but received less coverage in the public discussion of crime at the time.  Victims of robbery came from all different social classes and demographic groups, and this too contributed to the fear by creating an image of robbers who could attack anyone at any time.

A number of studies have provided evidence of crime concentration at and near mass transit locations where paths intersect, referred to as a node.

Abstract:
Der mit Verfassungsrang ausgestattete Schuldgrundsatz als Voraussetzung der Bestrafung ist eine der zentralen Systemkategorien des Strafrechts. Anders als ein Erfolgsstrafrecht verlangt das Schuldstrafrecht nach einem "Andershandelnkönnen" des Täters als Vorbedingung der Zuschreibung von Verantwortlichkeit. Die dabei vorausgesetzte Anlage des Menschen zu Selbstbestimmung und ethischer Einsicht gehört elementar zum Menschenbild, das der Rechtsordnung des Grundgesetzes mit seiner Betonung von Wert und Würde des Einzelnen zu Grunde liegt. Als Ausgangspunkt der Betrachtung werden in der vorliegen

A presente dissertação de mestrado verificou empiricamente a influência do tráfico de entorpecentes nos delitos de homicídio e roubo em 32 metrópoles da América Latina, por meio da análise dos delitos reportados por jornais diários dessas cidades nos anos de 2006 e 2011. O objetivo deste estudo foi mensurar o impacto em nível continental do comércio ilegal de drogas na prevalência de outros delitos, levando em consideração outras variáveis contextuais.

Abstract:
The purpose of the study was to examine how Sweden’s two biggest tabloids, Aftonbladet and Expressen, frame spectacular crime and specifically how they covered the Helicopter robbery that occurred in 2009. We identified three main participants in the story, the police, the culprits and the victims. We examined how much and what kind of space the identified participants were given and how the two newspapers constructed the participants in a dramaturgic sense.   Using a quantitative content analysis method we found that the time period included 433 articles in both newspapers.
