#Criminology #Education #StudyInItaly

With Valentin Pereda and @ddhetu.bsky.social, we explore how kinship, friendship, and collaboration sustain cooperation within the Sinaloa Cartel.

Our new article, “Social Embeddedness, Multiplexity, and Criminal Collaboration within the Sinaloa Cartel,” is published in the Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency.
And it's #Openacces #research

Under El Chapo’s leadership, the #Sinaloa Cartel relied not only on power or violence, but on strong social bonds.

New pub alert 🍾
The most challenging yet rewarding paper I’ve worked on: 3y from idea to publication in BJC!
I explore how unstructured spare time shapes individual and temporal differences in crime, and propose a spare time model in criminology.

My latest @newscientist.com cartoon

Very sad to hear that Ron Clarke has died. He originally identified that understanding crime *opportunities* is much more important in preventing crime than studying factors like offender genetics or upbringing.

Millions have not been victims because of his work. He was also a truly nice guy.

congrats, fascinating!
