Contemporary scholars have begun to explore non-normative sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression in a growing victimization literature, but very little research is focused on LGBTQ communities’ patterns of offending (beyond sex work) and their experiences with police, the courts, and correctional institutions. This Handbook, the first of its kind in Criminology and Criminal Justice, will breaks new ground by presenting a thorough treatment of all of these under-explored issues in one interdisciplinary volume that features current empirical work. This innovative handbook includes: -Review of background and historical coverage of issues related to LGBT individuals and criminology -Research on LGBT individuals’ experience as victims as well as perpetrators of crimes, including well-established topics like anti-gay bias crimes, as well as less-explored topics like same-sex domestic violence and youth gang involvement -Exploration of interactions between LGBT communities and the justice system, including police, courts, and corrections agents, particularly in juvenile treatment facilities, jails and prisons. -Important contributions at the intersection of public health and criminology, not only from an epidemiological perspective, but also between certain criminally-defined behaviors and their public health consequences This timely and important work will be an essential resource for researchers in criminology interested in exploring issues facing LGBT individuals, as well as from related disciplines such as sociology, public health, and public policy. It offers a comprehensive source of the current research as well as a jumping-off point for future studies.

ICT developments over the last thirty years have fundamentally changed the way international business is conducted. A new type of firm has emerged, enabled by ICT: the digital MNE. The following literature review examines the rise of the digital MNE by exploring traditional theories of firm internationalisation and analysing country-level and firm-level impacts of ICT. A review of the extant literature on the internationalisation process of the digital MNE is discussed, and further research is proposed to examine the effect of country-level digitisation on relative equity-based investment flows.

Information and communication technology (ICT) developments over the last thirty years have fundamentally changed the way international business is conducted, as transaction costs associated with cross-border information flows have significantly decreased. A new type of firm has emerged, enabled by ICT: the digital MNE. The following study first reviews extant literature to examine the rise of the digital MNE within the purview of traditional theories of firm internationalisation, analysing the country-level and firm-level impacts of ICT developments on economic and firm internationalisation trends respectively. The literature provides evidence of an asset-light internationalisation trend enabled by such ICT developments, particularly for firms such as digital MNEs. If digitisation indeed allows for more asset-light outward investment patterns, a country's level of business digitisation will be negatively related to its relative level of equity-based internationalisation. I test this hypothesis in an empirical study using ordinary least squares regression analysis in a cross-sectional sample of 116 countries for the year 2015. The regression results provide evidence both for and against the hypothesis, thus I do not find robust support for a negative relationship between a country’s level of business digitisation and its relative level of equity-based internationalisation. However, the findings provide valuable insights for future IB research: the evidence of a positive relationship between business digitisation and relative level of equity-based internationalisation suggests that digitisation may constitute a location advantage which enables domestic firms to successfully internationalise. Additionally, evidence in support of the hypothesized negative relationship may be used to construct research designs of future studies wishing to explore this relationship further.
