Federal Sentencing
Disparity, USA, 2005-2014_BJS 2015
|
This
Report examines patterns
of federal sentencing disparity among white and black
offenders, by sentence received, and looks at
judicial variation in sentencing since Booker v.
United States, regardless of race. It summarizes
U.S. Sentencing Guidelines, discusses how approaches of
other researchers to the study of sentencing practices
differ from this approach, defines disparity as used in
this study, and explains the methodology. This working
paper was prepared by Abt Associates for BJS in response
to a request by the Department of Justice' s Racial
Disparities Working Group to design a study of federal
sentencing disparity. Data are from BJS's Federal
Justice Statistics Program, which annually collects
federal criminal justice processing data from various
federal agencies. The analysis uses data mainly from the
U.S. Sentencing Commission. Summary

The World Health Organization launched the
first World report on
violence and health on October 3rd, 2002.
Since then, more than 30
governments have organized national launches or policy
discussions about the
Report, and resolutions endorsing the Report and calling for its
implementation
have been passed in a number of fora, such as the World Health
Assembly, the
United Nations High Commission on Human Rights, and the African
Union.
The World report
on violence and health is the first comprehensive review of the
problem of violence on a global
scale – what it is, whom it affects and what can be done about
it.
Three years
in the making, the report benefited from the participation of
over 160 experts
from around the world, receiving both peer-review from
scientists and
contributions and
comments from representatives of all the world’s regions.

Collating Longitudinal
Data on Crime,
Victimization and Social Attitudes in England and Wales:
A New Resource for
Exploring Long-term Trends in Crime
A recent
article
in the British Journal of Criminology, authored by Will Jennings
et al..
Abstract: Exploring
long-term
trends in crime and criminal justice is a multifaceted exercise.
This
article introduces the construction and methodological benefits
of a series of
new data sets that amalgamate approximately 30 years of public
data on crime,
victimization, fear of crime, social and political attitudes
with national
socio-economic indicators in England and Wales.
The data operate at both an
aggregate and individual level and will be available for public
use (and
modification) from autumn 2015.
Here, we outline the contours and contents of
the data set and highlight the importance of using longitudinal
data in
exploring theoretical and empirical questions about crime,
victimization and
social attitudes.
