De Bondt ISBN: 9789046602652 One of the main deficiencies in the EU area of freedom, security and justice, is the lack of cross-country comparable data on crime and criminal justice. The importance of progress in this domain, especially in the context of the identification of best practices in the fight against crime, has been identified on several occasions. The main difficulty lies in the comparability of data, or in other words the guarantee that exchanged data is understood in the same way by all actors. In March 2007, the European Commission, DG JLS, launched a call for tender for a “Study on the development of an EU level offence classification system and an assessment of its feasibility to supporting the implementation of the Action Plan to develop an EU strategy to measure crime and criminal justice” – The Crime Statistics Project (CSP). This book contains the fi nal report of that Project, conducted by Unisys Belgium and IRCP in the course of 2008-2009. In the context of the project, EULOCS – the EU level offence classification system – was created. Its aim is not to become yet another compelling system that requires Member States to further harmonise domestic criminal law or to adjust national data models, but to be a reference index that could serve the different needs in the wider area of justice and home affairs. According to its authors, the area of justice and home affairs could benefi t from using EULOCS as a bench-mark, increasing the internal coherence of EU’s criminal policy. This book is essential reading for EU policy makers, judicial and law enforcement authorities throughout the Union and from a broader international context. Undoubtedly, this book will be an asset to everyone who is involved in or taking an interest in the production of meaningful and comparable data on crime and criminal justice in Europe.
