Crime Control Policies

The Interdisciplinary Research Center for the Evaluation of Public Policies (LIEPP), the Department of Economics at Sciences Po, and the University of Chicago Crime Lab are jointly organizing a two day workshop on “Crime Control policies”.

The purpose of the workshop is to provide a forum for bringing together economists and other social scientist from Europe, the US, Central and South America, and elsewhere, to discuss empirical research related to the causes of criminal behavior and the most efficient strategies for crime control. The forum is open to psychologists, sociologists, criminologists, demographers, legal scholars and other researchers, as well as economists, in order to promote inter-disciplinary discussions relevant to the study of crime.
