It provides a global perspective on the extent of elderly crime and victimization, with international comparisons for addressing the problem. It explores the extent and types of crimes committed by the elderly, the characteristics of older criminals, and the responses of the criminal justice system (including prisons and institutions) to elderly criminals, including: diversion programs, community-based treatment programs, and special programs including health & mental health care services for older prisoners. The second part of the book covers victimization of the elderly. Research findings show that certain crimes including fraud, theft, and certain types of financial crimes disproportionately affect older people, and these types of crimes are growing in prevalence. This work explores the characteristics of older victims and the types of crimes that affect them. Finally, the book presents comparative international research on approaches to crime prevention, education, and legislation to address the victimization of the elderly. This work will be of interest to students in criminology and criminal justice, as well as related fields such as sociology, and gerontology. 606 $aPersones grans$2thub 606 $aDelinqüents$2thub 606 $aVíctimes de delictes$2thub 606 $aCriminologia$2thub 606 $aCriminology 606 $aGeriatrics 606 $aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/1B0000 606 $aGeriatrics/Gerontology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H33150 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2tgfc 615 7$aPersones grans 615 7$aDelinqüents 615 7$aVíctimes de delictes 615 7$aCriminologia 615 0$aCriminology. 615 0$aGeriatrics. 615 14$aCriminology and Criminal Justice, general. 615 24$aGeriatrics/Gerontology. 676 $a618.97 702 $aKratcoski$b Peter C$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 702 $aEdelbacher$b Maximilian$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910300046203321 996 $aPerspectives on Elderly Crime and Victimization$92040977 997 $aUNINA
