Assessment Information
CRIM2300: Comparative Criminology
Due Date:
Word count: 1500 words (plus or minus 10% excluding citations)
Weighting: 10%
Students are required to compile a selection of readings related to crime problem AND the response to that problem in a foreign country (I.e. not Australia) and to complete an annotated bibliography. These reading should be those that help you learn about the crime and justice issues related to your country of choice. An annotated bibliography is a list of books, articles or other documents, and consists of a citation followed by a brief summary and evaluation of each document listed.
There are two sections in each annotated bibliography entry:
Each annotation should provide:
The annotated bibliography must contain at least SEVEN sources, excluding assigned course readings. Recommended readings may be included. Although students may choose to include more than seven documents, including too many may make it difficult to summarise and evaluate each document in the allocated word count. Students will not receive extra marks for including more than the minimum number of documents.
Documents selected should relate to the criminological issue that you have chosen even if it does not also examine your country of choice. Documents that cover the criminological issues AND your country of choice are obviously welcome.
All citations should use APA 6th format. The word count includes the total of all annotations and does not include the citations.

Weighting: 15%
Students will complete a concise profile of a crime problem and one of the ways it is being responses to in non-Australian jurisdiction (the same foreign country that your annotated bibliography was on). The profile should outline the crime problem and why it is criminologically interesting. It should examine the extent of the problem, what is currently known about it and what is currently being done to solve/combat the problem (the response). The response could be a legislative response (laws created to deal with the problem), a law enforcement response (how police are attempting to control the problem), or a court-based response (how judges are punishing those who contribute to the problem). Choosing one type of response only is the best way to write a concise and well-articulated brief. A problem-response brief is an attempt to describe a particular jurisdiction in terms of crime and responses to crime. This brief requires you to present a picture of the problem and the response to it and should be able to be understood by anyone who is not a specialist on your foreign country of choice. This may require you to draw on census data (where available) and other official statistics (e.g. police, correctional, government or NGO statistics) to help describe the problem and the response they are focusing on.
Your assignment should be presented in a report format with the following sub-headings:

Weighting: 40%
Students will complete a comparative case study of crime and justice that brings international research evidence to bear on a specific problem experienced by a country OUTSIDE Australia.
Building on the Problem-Response Brief, the comparative case study should investigate what there is to know about the problem and response using the global criminological research literature. Students should be prepared to compare what is happening in their jurisdiction of choice (from the problem-response brief) to one other jurisdiction (which can include Australia) to make a comparison to formulate suggestions on how to solve the crime problem in their country of choice.
The findings should be presented in a report format with the following sub-headings:
There is also an opportunity for you to demonstrate your ability to take on feedback. As your Problem-Response Brief comprises the first two pages of your essay, you can make revisions or corrections to your Problem-Response Brief based on the graders feedback by highlighting where these changes have been made when it is resubmitted as part of the comparative essay.
