JCIC 2014, Vol 65, No. 4

Editorial

We have completed another issue of the Journal of Criminalistics and Criminology in English. It comprises articles on crime prevention, community policing in different cultures, local analyses of crime and fear of crime, criminal investigation and criminal justice (responses to drug trafficking; the theory of probability in criminal justice; post-mortal diagnostics; intelligence-led policing/criminal investigation; and investigation of economic crime), as well as those on criminological debates on crimes against the environment and corruption. 

The articles offer broad perspectives on topical issues in evaluation of social control activities and ways of understanding a variety of forms of deviance and responses to it.  The authors come from different professional and academic environments spanning Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Czech Republic, Korea, Macedonia, Serbia, Slovenia, the United Kingdom, and the United States of America, which gives this issue significant international dimensions.

Editors: Marjan Fank and Gorazd Meško
