En présentant les grands principes de l'analyse criminelle, cet ouvrage vise un premier objectif : bénéficier du savoir des études menées depuis deux siècles qui ont permis des avancées notables et qu'il ne faudrait pas oublier. Dès le 19e siècle, en effet, on réalisait des travaux d'analyse criminelle pour répondre à la nécessité d'augmenter l'efficacité de la police dans sa lutte contre la criminalité.L'analyse criminelle est un travail complexe et sa formation doit en rendre compte. D'un côté, les analystes et, plus généralement, les criminologues se professionnalisent : il importe donc de bien définir en quoi consiste leur travail. C'est loin d'être facile, d'autant que la criminologie est elle-même un amalgame de domaines : géographie, psychologie, sociologie, travail social, droit, etc. D'un autre côté, il n'est pas évident de distinguer les analystes criminels des chercheurs en criminologie, puisqu'ils utilisent tous deux des méthodes et des processus semblables. Pourtant, tout comme les chercheurs sont considérés comme des « spécialistes en recherche », les analystes devraient être reconnus comme des experts en leur domaine. Cet ouvrage répondra à cet objectif de reconnaissance de la profession en en montrant toutes les facettes, de façon théorique, bien sûr, mais aussi en utilisant des exemples tirés de cas réels.

This comparative analysis examines the scope of prosecutorial powers at different phases of criminal investigation in four countries: the United States, Italy, Poland, and Germany. Since in all four the number of criminal cases decided without trial is constantly increasing, criminal investigation has become central in the criminal process. The work asks: who should be in charge of this stage of the process? Prosecutors have gained tremendous powers to influence the outcome of the criminal cases, including powers once reserved for judges. In a system in which the role of the trial is diminishing and the significance of criminal investigation is growing, this book questions whether the prosecutor's powers at the early stage of the process should be enhanced.Using a problem-oriented approach, the book provides a parallel analysis of each country along five possible spheres of prosecutorial engagement: commencing criminal investigation; conducting criminal investigation, undertaking initial charging decisions; imposing coercive measures; and discontinuing criminal investigation. Using the competing adversarial-inquisitorial models as a framework, the focus is on the prosecutor as a crucial figure in the criminal process and investigation.The insights of this book will be of interest and relevance to students and academics in criminal justice, criminology, law, and public policy, as well as policymakers, government officials, and others interested in legal reform.

Emerging alongside the progression of women's rights in the twenty-first century is the development of the men's rights movement, parts of which have culminated into the contemporary 'manosphere.' Consisting of online communities that ascribe to misogynistic ideologies, which objectify, disparage, and dehumanise women, the manosphere also houses those who identify as involuntary celibate (incel). Drawing on ethnographic research and interviews, this book provides an original and timely insight into the development of the manosphere, how and why people join and self-identify as incel, the extent to which the influence and philosophy of incel and the incelsphere draws on and is penetrating mainstream culture and political discourse, and its harmful impact. The Incel Rebellion is essential reading for a broad range of practitioners and scholars across criminology, sociology, terrorism studies, gender, media and cultural studies, and politics, as well as expanding the field of cybercrime research and beyond.
