Abstract

Jock Young (1942-2013) was one of the worlds foremost criminologists. This paper traces his academic career in sociology and criminology and its culmination in the theoretical, methodological, and interventionist approach known as cultural criminology. Drawing on a 2008 interview with Professor Young and the authors longstanding relationship with him, this paper in addition explores the convergence of Youngs intellectual trajectory with the emerging contours of cultural criminology.
