This edited collection provides an original and comprehensive take on
retail crime and its prevention, by combining international data and
multidisciplinary perspectives from criminologists, economists,
geographers, police officers and other experts. Drawing on environmental
criminology theory and situational crime prevention, it focusses on
crime and safety in retail environments but also the interplay between
individuals, products and settings such as stores, commercial streets
and shopping malls, as well as the wider context of situational
conditions of the supply chain in which crime occurs. Chapters offer
state-of-the-art research on retail crime from a range of countries such
as Australia, Brazil, Israel, Italy, Sweden, the UK and the USA. This
methodological and well-researched study is devoted to both academics
and practitioners from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds whose
common interest is to prevent retail crime and overall retail loss.
