This week we discuss a very timely topic. Stephanie DiPietro, a professor at the University of Iowa's Depart of Sociology and Criminology talks to us about the Bosnian war. What effects such an extreme event of violence had on people in the aftermath. Steph tells us why the term "risk factor" may not be the best way to discuss some of the correlates conducive to crime. Finally, we discuss how this work could be applicable to the events we are seeing today with the invasion of Ukraine.

Steph's work has been published in journals such as Criminology, Sociology of Education, and Journal of Research in Crime and Delinquency.
