Curriculum Vitae
James D. Unnever (Ph.D. Duke University, 1980) is a Professor of Criminology at
the University of South Florida Sarasota-Manatee. His research generally
examines the relationships among race, racism, and crime. His latest
research focuses on whether racial and ethnic intolerance predicts punitive
attitudes cross-nationally, factors related to whether the public wants to “get
tough” on corporate crime, and the relationship between perceived racial
discrimination and delinquency.(more...)
His most recent publications investigate the racial divide in support for
capital punishment, progressive religious beliefs and support for the death
penalty, the relationship between religious affiliation and punitiveness,
Colvin’s differential coercion theory, the relationships among ADHD, low
self-control, and bullying and criminal behavior.(hide...)
