Indexed: Vols. 1-15#2 (2006-2020) SAGE Publications Feminist Criminology is an innovative journal that is dedicated to research related to women, girls, and crime within the context of a feminist critique of criminology. Published five times a year as the official journal of the Division on Women and Crime of the American Society of Criminology, this international publication focuses on research and theory that highlights the gendered nature of crime. The feminist critique of criminology incorporates a perspective that the paths to crime differ for males and females. Therefore, research that uses sex as a control variable often fails to illuminate the factors that predict female criminology. This journal provides a venue for articles that place women in the center of the research question, answering different questions than the mainstream approach of controlling for sex. Utilizing quantitative and qualitative methodology, Feminist Criminology features research on insightful topics, including: race, ethnicity, and gender diversity in the study of women and crime; cross-cultural and international perspectives on women and crime; girls and women as victims; women working in the criminal justice profession; and much more.
