New resource - Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Criminology and Criminal Justice

The Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Criminology and Criminal Justice is an excellent resource if you're looking to gain insight into a particular topic. It's possible to either search or browse the encyclopedia. Broad subject areas are outlined below: 

Subfields shown are corrections, courts, crime media and popular culture, criminal behavior, criminological theory, critical criminology, geography of crime, international crime, juvenile justice, policing, prevention/public policy, race ethnicity and crime, research methods, sentencing, victimology, white collar crime, women crime and justice.

Each entry provides a detailed discussion of the subject matter, and includes suggestions for further reading, and a reference list. New entries are regularly being added to the encyclopedia, and so it will continue to grow in scope. 

Highly recommended for criminology students.
