| Abstract | Studies of the costings of crime often sidestep the issue of what constitutes “crime”. This is problematic both because it fails to render explicit the policy significance of the categories of offences used in the costings exercise and because, within international and comparative contexts, differences between national definitions may give rise to misleading conclusions. In this paper we elaborate on these problems, indicating the possibilities for resolving them, thus facilitating the evaluation of the costs of crime and enabling more reliable interpretations to be placed on such evaluations. After some general observations on legal definitions of crime, we consider in turn the descriptive definitions used in criminal codes and, external to legislation, by the courts and the police. We continue by briefly considering the relevance of prescriptive definitions for crime costings. We then conclude with some indications on how the definition problem may impact on the costings of crime. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
