Description - The Craft of Criminology by Travis Hirschi
Travis Hirschi is one of the most cited criminologists of the twentieth century yet it is remarkable how little is known about his life and career. Known as spokesperson for social control theory, Hirschi is a controversial figure in that he challenges popular theories in criminal career research as well as the need for longitudinal studies of offenders and criminal justice policies. For Hirschi ideas were always tied to the mode of investigation and the mode of investigation was always tied to substantive concerns. Thus, substantive theoretical contribution and research methodology were the "twin" driving forces throughout his career.
