About the journal
The most recent Journal Citation Reports published by the Social Science Citation Index (2004) ranks Theoretical Criminology at number 6 out of the top 26 journals in Criminology & Penology!
Theoretical Criminology is a major interdisciplinary and international journal for the advancement of the theoretical aspects of criminological knowledge.
The journal is committed to renewing general theoretical debate, exploring the interrelation of theory and data in empirical research and advancing the links between criminological analysis and general social and political theory.
The scope of the journal is broad and inclusive, embracing the wide diversity of thinking within criminology.
"Until the advent of Theoretical Criminology, we had no consistent forum for the exciting theoretical work that is revitalizing criminology around the world. Now we do. Theoretical Criminology has filled that gap admirably: there is nothing else like it in the field today." Elliot Currie
"[Theoretical Criminology has] published material of a high quality, with a number of articles standing out as original and challenging..." - Times Higher Education Supplement
"Theoretical Criminology is a unique catalyst for the advancement of criminological thought, an international meeting place for expanding and provoking new thinking about crime and justice in a rapidly changing world. This journal is an essential new addition to the global criminological library." John Hagan
"A first-class journal - with an international and interdisciplinary ambit - which takes seriously the role of theory, research, and politics in analysing crime, deviance, justice, and social control." Kathleen Daly
