Criminal psychology, and its relationship to the practice of law, has become a topic of major significance over the last three decades. Psychologists play a key role in modern criminal investigation and are central to crime reduction measures such as offender profiling, delinquency prevention and tackling fear of crime. Contributors from North America, Europe and Australia examine this link, both adding to and drawing upon the pool of recent theory construction and empirical work in the following areas: * causes and prevention of offending * studies of crime and offenders * the victim's perspective * witnesses and testimony * studies of legal processes. These issues are studied from a 'local' perspective that recognises not only the need for cross-national comparative research, but also the generation of a corpus of scientific knowledge more representative of the complexity of criminal and legal investigation today.

The current economic framework increasingly requires verifying the ethical values of the foundations of the economic behaviours of individual consumers and organizations. Even on a historical level, the financial crisis dramatically brought to light a perception of the behaviour of the link between ethics, consumers and enterprises that differs from previous years. Rediscovering the importance of ethics in economic choices first requires a focused historical analysis, then the capability to represent it and thereafter verifying how its manifestations change over time. The proposed historical analysis is developed by addressing the ethics of consumers, of corporate social responsibility and microcredit. An overview of the key contributions allows structuring the scale in support of empirical research aimed at over two thousand university students.
