Putting Desistance Research to Work: Policy and Desistance Theory.This book represents a brief treatise on the theory and research behind the concept of desistance from crime. This ever-growing field has become increasingly relevant as questions of serious issues regarding sentencing, probation and the penal system continue to go unanswered. Rocque covers the history of research on desistance from crime and provides a discussion of research and theories on the topic before looking towards the future of the application of desistance to policy. The focus of the volume is to provide an overview of the practical and theoretical developments to better understand desistance. In addition, a multidisciplinary, integrative theoretical perspective is presented, ensuring that it will be of particular interest for students and scholars of criminology and the criminal justice system.Palgrave's Frontiers in Criminology TheoryCriminologyCriminals—RehabilitationRecidivismProbationCrime preventionCriminology and Criminal Justice, generalhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B0000Rehabilitationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9020Recidivismhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9030Probationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B9010Crime Preventionhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1BE010Criminology.Criminals—Rehabilitation.Recidivism.Probation.Crime prevention.Criminology and Criminal Justice, general.Rehabilitation.Recidivism.Probation.Crime Prevention.365.66Rocque Michaelauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut867307BOOK9910255268703321Desistance from Crime1935992UNINA
