“…Whereas numerous studies have been conducted to describe the psychosocial consequences of particular types of victimization (e.g., Freedy, Resnick, Kilpatrick, Dansky, & Tidwell, 1994;Frieze, Greenberg, & Hymer, 1987;Kilpatrick, Saunders, Veronen, Best, & Von, 1987;Sales, Baum, & Shore, 1984), only a handful compare symptoms across crime types (Davis & Brickman, 1996;Lurigio, 1987;Resick, 1987;Riggs & Foa, 1995;Wirtz & Harrell, 1987), and even fewer are specific to bias crime victimization Ehrlich, Larcom, & Purvis, 1994;Ephross, Barnes, Ehrlich, Sandnes, & Weiss, 1986;Herek, Cogan, & Gillis, 1999;. In part due to methodological issues, the results of these studies on bias crime victimization are somewhat inconsistent in their conclusions.…”

The Persecution of Gypsies in Europe

Roma/Gypsies, nomads newly arrived in Europe in the 1400s, endured expulsions, forcible removal of children, servitude in galleys or mines, death sentences for being Gypsy, and absolute slavery in the Balkans from the 16th century onward. Persecution stemmed from highest authorities in State and Church. Following the murder of 200,000 to 500,000 Roma in the Holocaust, persecution persists, especially in Central and Eastern Europe where Roma form up to 10% of population (Bulgaria, Slovakia, Romania). Discriminated against under communism, their plight has dramatically worsened since 1989. Endemic problems (low life expectancy, high illiteracy, dire poverty, poor housing) are now heightened by massive, disproportionate unemployment. Unprecedented persecution has been unleashed by new state nationalism and easing of censorship. Roma are the new scapegoat for post-Communist society's ills. The media commonly stigmatize Roma. Few countries have created laws to protect Roma rights. Some activists fear a potential genocide if conditions worsen.

“…The current state of evidence suggests that adoption of such behaviors varies across populations, types of victimization, and contexts (Fisher, Cullen, & Turner, 2000;Fisher, Daigle, Cullen, & Santana, 2007;Guerette & Santana, 2010;Lurigio, 1987;Tewksbury & Mustaine, 2003). Past studies examining victims' protective behaviors indicate that individual characteristics, lifestyles that expose individuals to risk, past victimization experiences, and fear of crime are related to individuals' decisions to protect themselves (Fisher et al, 2000;Lurigio, 1987;Tewksbury & Mustaine, 2003).…”

Protection Against Pursuit: A Conceptual and Empirical Comparison of Cyberstalking and Stalking Victimization Among a National Sample

Cyberstalking is a relatively understudied area in criminology, with no consensus among scholars as to whether it represents a modified form of stalking or whether it is an entirely new and emerging criminal phenomenon. Using data from the 2006 Supplemental Victimization Survey to the National Crime Victimization Survey, this study compares stalking and cyberstalking victims across several dimensions, including situational features of their experiences and self-protective behaviors. Results indicate that there are significant differences between stalking and cyberstalking victims, including their number of self-protective behaviors adopted, duration of contact with their stalker, financial costs of victimization, and perceived fear at onset. Perceived fear over time, the occurrence of a physical attack, and sex of the victim were all associated with a higher number of self-protective behaviors for cyberstalking victims compared to stalking victims, net of the effect of the control variables. Implications for stalking theory, research, and criminal justice policy are discussed.

“…Como una reacción en cadena, las repercusiones de los eventos delictivos y los nuevos procedimientos de seguridad adoptados por los funcionarios diseminan el miedo en las redes sociales (Lurigio, 1987), minando las relaciones de confianza, aumentado el grado de precaución de las personas y consolidando la imagen de los bancarios como un grupo de riesgo (Ericson, Doyle, 2003;Bauman, 2000;Kennedy, Sacco, 1998;Zedner, 1997).…”

Aunque éste sea un foco ampliado y en construcción, presenta, desde ya, dos grandes ventajas.En primer lugar, analiza a las víctimas como sujetos morales capaces de filtrar, elaborar y dar respuestas diferenciadas a las "heridas" del delito y desarrollar o no la identidad de víctima (Rock, 2002; Goffman, 1992). En segundo lugar, y posibilitando una revisión de las antiguas teorías culpabilizadoras, pone en consideración los efectos socio-institu- IntroducciónDespués de ser ignoradas por largo tiempo y, posteriormente, vistas como culpables por las teorías de la víctima propensa (von Henting, 1948) y "precipitadora" (Mendelsohn, 1974), las víctimas del delito pasaron a ser abordadas por una mirada menos "egocentrada" o no reduccionista en las dos últi-mas décadas (Mawby, Walklate, 1994;Walklate, 2003).Superando el análisis sobre los estilos de vida (Hindelang, Gottfredson et al., 1978), que focaliza la influencia de las rutinas cotidianas en las oportunidades de victimización, la concepción de los procesos sociales permitió recontextualizar aspectos relevantes sobre las víctimas de delitos: los aspectos 1 Este texto es una versión revisada y ampliada del artículo publicado en International Review of Victimology, 13, 2006, pp. 1-25. 2 Traducción de Gustavo González, Universidad Nacional del Litoral.
