Abstract

The integration of arts-based, particularly theater-based, education and research within the realm of criminology is increasingly imperative, primarily due to the current limitations in its application. Despite the traditional dominance of quantitative methods in criminological research and training, theater-based methodologies may provide nuanced dimensions to the complexities of criminological phenomena that may remain obscured by more conventional approaches.
