About the Workshop:
In the European context, researchers, both individually and in teams, have been gradually embracing the values of OS. In 2023, collective initiatives have emerged, such as the formation of the ENOC (European Network for Open Criminology) within the European Society of Criminology. Against this backdrop, the University of Cologne, with support from ENOC, aims to foster a debate on OS in European criminology.
The workshop’s aim is to gather researchers interested in criminology who compile, disseminate or use open data to address crime-related research questions, as well as those evaluating the prevalence of Open Science practices in crime research. We invite submissions from all subfields of criminology as well as other disciplines with an interest in crime research and encourage researchers at any career stage to contribute.
Topics of interest include:
- Meta-perspectives on the usage of open science principles in European criminology
- Reflections about Open Science and potential concerns in Criminological Research
- Benefits & risks of sharing criminological relevant data
- Open research & qualitative research in criminology
- Open qualitative data
- Reproducing & replicating international criminological research findings.
- Using computational methods to obtain criminologically relevant open data
- Exploiting naturally occurring variations in open data sources to study causal effects
Submissions:
The workshop committee, as proposed Guest Editors, are in contact with the Editorial Team of the European Journal of Criminology (EJC). A selection of contributions will be chosen to collate into a proposed Special Issue on the same topic, which has been approved in principle. Should the full proposal be acceptable to the EJC, the contributors will be presented with the opportunity to submit full manuscripts of their papers to the
Special Issue. The final selection of the accepted full papers for the Special Issue in the EJC will be made after a peer-reviewed process and assessment by the workshop committee as Guest Editors with oversight from the EJC Editorial Team. While the Special Issue would focus on Open Science and the usage of open data in European criminology, we also welcome submissions that relate to other parts of the world as long as they demonstrate their relevance to the wider European context.
