Tentative Insights on Race, Economics, and Crime, and the Problems with Crime Data
Presented by Professor Steven Morrison
This CLE will present data analysis regarding the potential association between economic inequality and crime as well as race and crime, asking the question whether either economic inequality or race can predict crime. It will offer some tentative conclusions, but will then show why, in the context of U.S. crime, any data-driven insights must be treated very carefully, since crime data in the U.S. isn’t readily susceptible to data analysis. This CLE may be of interest to anyone interested in crime in the U.S., the role of race and economic inequality in crime, and anyone interested in understanding more about how data analysis may impact decisions in the legal context.
Please plan to join us at the conclusion of the CLE for our Alumni & Friends Social in the Central Commons.
