Abstract

As discussed in Chap. 2, our original research focused on citations in major English-speaking countries and examined the most-cited scholars in the major international criminology and criminal justice (CCJ) journals of five countries: Australian and New Zealand Journal of Criminology (ANZ), British Journal of Criminology (BJC), Canadian Journal of Criminology and Criminal Justice (CJC), and Criminology (CRIM), which is the house journal of the American Society of Criminology. In this chapter, we extend that analysis to the most recent time period, 2006–2010. The most-cited works of the most-cited scholars are also listed. Comparisons are made with four earlier time periods (1986–1990, 1991–1995, 1996–2000, and 2001–2005) so that changes in the influence and prestige of scholars during the past 25 years can be documented.
