It focuses on the homicide situation as the unit of analysis, and explores similarities and differences in the context of homicide for different social groups. For example, using Qualitative Comparative Analysis, we investigate whether various social groups (e.g., men vs. women, teenagers vs. adults, strangers vs. intimates, Blacks vs. Whites) kill under qualitatively different circumstances and, if so, what are the characteristics of these unique profiles. The analysis of over 400,000 US homicides is supplemented with qualitative analysis of narrative accounts of homicide events to more fully investigate the structure and process underlying these lethal situations. Our findings of unique and common homicide situations across different time periods and social groups are then discussed in terms of their implications for criminological theory and public policy. 410 0$aCambridge studies in criminology. 606 $aHomicide$xResearch$zUnited States 606 $aCriminology$zUnited States 606 $aCrime$zUnited States$xSociological aspects 606 $aHomicide$zUnited States$xHistory 606 $aMurder$zUnited States$xHistory 615 0$aHomicide$xResearch 615 0$aCriminology 615 0$aCrime$xSociological aspects. 615 0$aHomicide$xHistory. 615 0$aMurder$xHistory. 676 $a364.15/2/0973 700 $aMiethe$b Terance D.$0556638 702 $aRegoeczi$b Wendy C.$f1972- 702 $aDrass$b Kriss A.$f1953- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910784319603321 996 $aRethinking homicide$93840764 997 $aUNINA
