International Crime

Kaltblütige Morde, eine tragische Entführung und ein aufsehenerregender Raub - echte Kriminalfälle aus dem wahren Leben. True Crime berührt uns, weil unter dieser Bezeichnung authentische Verbrechen von nebenan geschildert werden. Vielleicht sogar aus unserer unmittelbaren Nachbarschaft. Selbst Polizisten, Richter, Staatsanwälte und Strafverteidiger lässt es nicht kalt, wenn Angeklagte wegen besonders grausamer Taten vor Gericht stehen und die erschütternden Schicksale der Opfer und ihrer Angehörigen nach und nach ans Licht kommen.

Michael R. Gottfredson and Travis Hirschi's 1990 work, A General Theory of Crime, assessed contemporary work in criminology, while also introducing a new, comprehensive theory of crime. At the time, researchers tended to focus on environmental factors that led to crime, not on the criminals themselves. Additionally, crime researchers came from different disciplines and inclined towards thinking about crime only from their particular perspective. This meant ideas about what caused crime, and how to prevent it, were often in conflict.
