The growing role of different forms of technologies and types of risk-management strategies in the domain of crime and criminal justice provides an invaluable opportunity to explore trends internationally in crime control and the comparative organisation and operation of criminal justice systems. We particularly invite papers that critically explore technologies and crime in relation to: Big Data, Artificial Intelligence, Predictive Analytics, Digital Justice and Biotechnologies.
