Scott Jacques

I'm director of CriminologyOpen.com and professor of criminal justice and criminology at Georgia State University. My books are Code of the Suburb: Inside the World of Young Middle Class Drug Dealers, coauthored with Richard Wright (University of Chicago Press, 2015); Grey Area: Regulating Amsterdam's Coffeeshops (UCL Press, 2019); and, Jeremy Bentham on Police: The Unknown Story and What It Means for Criminology, coedited with Philip Schofield (UCL Press, 2021). As a public servant, I'm committed to making my work free to everyone—"open access." You can get free access to my work at my website, scottjacques.us.
