Abstract | Crime dropped by almost half in Milan during August 1992. Since the opportunities to commit offenses do not drop, this pattern suggests that offenders voluntarily reduce the level of their criminal activity. This propensity of offenders to take time off in August reflects Italian social values and illustrates the linkage between cultural values and crime patterns. (JPS) |
