Religion and Crime:
Kerley is Professor of Criminology and
Criminal Justice and Chair of the Department of Criminology and Criminal
Justice at The University of Texas at Arlington. From the preface:
"The scientific study of religion is a rather recent development in
colleges and universities in the United States and in other nations.
Beginning in the 1960s, researchers from many social science backgrounds
began conducting data-driven studies of the extent to which religiosity
is related to crime, deviance, and delinquency. Since the 1980s, social
scientists have also studied the nature, extent, practice, and impact of
faith and faith-based programs in prisons and other correctional
contexts. This volume contains the most contemporary and cutting-edge
research on religion and crime, which includes data-driven (quantitative
and qualitative), conceptual, review, and policyoriented papers."

As a 20-year chaplain, I could write a book on this, and perhaps ought to. The long story is how much the volunteers do already, in faith, certainly and foremost, but there is so much more and a whole line of psychology still untapped. Not first but surely refined and articulated best in Erik Erikson’s eight stages of life, how senior volunteers have successfully negotiated the first seven stages of life and desire to give back, and in prison where most of the still developing young men have failed in the first few stages and are still in search for of a decent civilized identity, etc.—and, no, work on that yet in Texas either. Furthermore, some Christian theorists have added to Erikson analogous faith stages, though Erikson is still the place to start. See Erikson’s Identity and the Life Cycle (NY: International Universities Press, 1959), Insight and Responsibility (NY: Norton, 1964), and Identity: Youth and Crisis (NY: Norton, 1968).
