From the Editor
Volume 6 opens with the first stop on the Journal of Quantitative
Criminology world tour of quantitative criminology. It is our plan to
bring to the readership a special issue on quantitative research in various
parts of the globe on a schedule of one issue every 2 to 3 years.
I do believe that this first installment, specifically on Swedish quantita-
tive criminology, most successfully accomplishes the objective of broadening
our quantitative horizons. Professor Wikstrom has done an excellent job in
assembling a stimulating set of papers.
With the start of a new volume, the composition of our editorial board
must change. I am pleased to welcome two new board members, Michael
G. Maxfield and William Rhodes, and, at the same time, am sad to lose
two board members, James Garofalo and Stephen Gottfredson, who have
been with us from the start. I thank both of them for their help over the
years, as I thank the entire board for their important role in the successes
of the Journal of Quantitative Criminology. Individually, I also acknowledge
my associate editors, William Bowers, John Laub, and Paul Tracy; my
editorial assistant, Ellen Neuman; and my production manager at Plenum,
James Langlois, for their tireless efforts.
