Preface
In the 19th century and early part of the 20th century, few scholars
discussed or wrote about the victim's role in a criminal situation. It
was not until the 1940s that interest in the victim developed. Von
Hentig's paper titled “Remarks on the Interaction of Perpetrator
and His Victim” (1941) and his book The Criminal and His Victim
(1948); Mendelsohn's paper “New Bio-Psycho-Social Horizons:
Victimology” (1947); and Ellenberger's study on the psychological
relationship between the criminal and his victim (1954) brought
clear scholarly focus to the plight of the victim.
The last quarter of the 20th century brought even more focus to the
victim. The First International Symposium on Victimology held in
Jerusalem in 1973 gave the discipline of victimology international
recognition as a distinct focus separate from the discipline of
criminology. The scholarly papers presented at the symposium
were divided into five volumes that aimed to provide new data,
theoretical inputs, and analyses to encourage the building of ideas
and the development of intellectual dialogues in the field of
victimology. In particular, the volumes sought to contribute to a
discourse within the international community of scholars and to
bring together scholars whose paths might not easily cross, despite
their common interest.
