Interview with Professor Jack Katz on The Seductions of Crime
About this episode
In this episode, Matthew talks to Professor Jack Katz from UCLA about his research on crime and crimonology.The central thesis of Seductions of Crime is that situation-specific emotional and sensual sensations play an important role in the commission of crime. It is not a complete theoretical construct, but rather the sensual experiences and emotional states of the perpetrator that are brought to bear in various forms of crime – from occasional shoplifting to cold-blooded robbery.
