Studying Crime through Social Network Analysis

David Bright*

To not be deterred, innovative researchers have wanted out novel sources of knowledge and analytical approaches to supply additional strong understandings of crime. Criminal justice records will yield distinctive insights into offence and bad person characteristics which will allow the mapping of the varied connections that exist between criminal actors. Social network analysis (SNA) will then be wont to enhance understandings of however emerging social structures form varied criminal activities, and the way crime will be controlled. The use of social network analysis to review teams of offenders engaged in illicit activities like narco traffic and coercion has mature in quality over the last 3 decades.
