Crime, Media, Culture is a peer-reviewed academic journal covering work at the intersections of criminological and cultural inquiry. It promotes a broad cross-disciplinary understanding of the relationship between crime, criminal justice, media and culture. The journal explores a range of media forms (including traditional media, new and alternative media, and surveillance technologies) and has a special focus on cultural criminology and its concerns with image, representation, meaning and style.

The journal covers three broad substantive areas:

  • The relationship between crime, criminal justice and media forms (including traditional media, new and alternative media, and surveillance technologies)
  • The relationship between criminal justice and cultural dynamics (with a special focus on cultural criminology and its concerns with image, representation, meaning and style)
  • The intersections of crime, criminal justice, media forms and cultural dynamics (including historical, political, situational, spatial, subcultural and cross-cultural intersections)

Established in 2005 by Jeff Ferrell, Yvonne Jewkes, and Chris Greer, the journal is currently edited by Sarah Armstrong, Katherine Biber, and Travis Linnemann.
