Abstract

"How can we read crime scenes through photography? Making use of micro-histories of domestic murder and crime scene photographs made available for the first time, Alexa Neale provides a highly original exploration of what crime scenes can tell us about the significance of expectations of domesticity, class, gender, race, privacy and relationships in twentieth-century Britain. With 10 case studies and 30 black and white images, Photographing Crime Scenes in 20th-Century London will take you inside the homes that were murder crime scenes to read their geographical and symbolic meanings in the light of the development of crime scene photography, forensic analysis and psychological testing. In doing so, it reveals how photographs of domestic objects and spaces were often used to recreate a narrative for the murder based on the defendant's perceived identity rather than to prove if they committed the crime at all. Bringing the history of crime, British social and cultural history and the history of forensic photography to the analysis of the crime scene, this study offers fascinating details on the changing public and private lives of Londoners in the 20th century"-- "How can we read crime scenes through photography?

Abstract

Comment peut-on passer d'une justice arbitraire à une justice rationnelle ? Voilà une des questions que se sont posées, au xviiie siècle, ceux que l'on appelle aujourd'hui les Philosophes. Leur volonté générale de réforme de la société et de ses institutions s'accompagnait d'une réflexion sur le crime et sa gestion. La ville de Genève a été un des laboratoires de cette réflexion. Michel Porret montre que ce projet de réforme judiciaire suppose une chose essentielle : pour qu'une justice plus rationnelle soit possible, il faut « qualifier » le crime, en établir les « circonstances », atténuantes ou aggravantes. Ce sera à l'expert de le faire. À partir du siècle des Lumières, on le convoquera sans cesse sur la scène du crime. Qu'il s'agisse de tromperie, de commerce du livre dangereux, de viol, de suicide ou de mort violente, l'expert est partout. Mais comment saisir son rôle ? Les archives judiciaires genevoises regorgent de récits par lesquels on assiste à la transformation de la façon de rendre la justice à la fin de l'Ancien Régime. Elles révèlent aussi la détresse des petites gens devant les drames dont ils sont victimes. Mêlées à celle des experts et des théoriciens du droit, c'est leurs voix que Michel Porret fait enfin entendre.

Abstract

In The Criminology of Place, David Weisburd, Elizabeth Groff, and Sue-Ming Yang present a new and different way of looking at the crime problem by examining why specific streets in a city have specific crime trends over time. Based on a 16-year longitudinal study of crime in Seattle, Washington, the book focuses our attention on small units of geographic analysis-micro communities, defined as street segments.
