OverviewThe late-20th century has witnessed an increase in the attention given to the later stages of criminal careers. Research upon this topic has charted the main factors associated with the termination of criminal careers, outlined some of the possible reasons behind these relationships and started to develop theoretical explanations for such relationships. This volume collects some of the contributions to this field of research. It focuses upon the initial explorations into the topic, the most commonly-observed findings, the cessation of offending by specific offender-types and theoretical matters. An introductory essay by the editor provides an overview of the work in this area and highlights the reasons why the termination of criminal careers will become increasingly important to criminologists and criminal justice policy makers alike.
