Abstract

Abstract In this final chapter we summarise the key theoretical and empirical contributions this book has made to Developmental and Life-Course Criminology. Character, Circumstances, and Criminal Careers makes an argument for a more dynamic Developmental and Life-Course Criminology (DLC) by exploring the relationship between childhood predictors, such as social disadvantage and social adversity, and different trajectories of crime involvement. It also presents a special analysis of the age–crime curve and its explanation. An original theory, a uniquely detailed contemporary longitudinal study, and novel research methods and analytical techniques derive innovative findings about the relationship between individual and environmental factors across a critical developmental period.
