CURRENT RESEARCH
The Institute has so far conducted numerous research projects, dealing with the most diverse areas of crime and criminal justice: operation of substantive and procedural criminal law, administration of criminal justice, international and European criminal law, criminal policy, penology and corrections, juvenile delinquency and juvenile justice, children’s rights, criminal phenomenology, social pathology and deviancy, victimology, social control, criminal investigation, children’s rights and other related research areas
According to established classifiers, research can be defined as theoretical, fundamental, applied, comparative, historical, empirical, longitudinal, action, qualitative, quantitative, etc. The Institute’s research policy seeks to follow the development of contemporary criminal law and its responses, to investigate current problems, and to monitor criminological trends worldwide.
New forms of crime and responses to them require new research as well as connections with other institutions. The Institute has traditionally been involved in international research, particularly through participation in various comparative studies.
