This book positions script analysis as a useful and pragmatic tool,
which can guide the selection and implementation of preventive
measures in business environments. It illustrates how the
concept aligns with the crime-specific orientation found in
environmental criminology, and particularly explores the
theoretical foundations of situational crime prevention, the
approach to which it is deemed most relevant and supportive.
This book positions script analysis as a useful and pragmatic tool,

measures in business environments. It illustrates how the

theoretical foundations of situational crime prevention, the
approach to which it is deemed most relevant and supportive.
The volume provides clear guidance on how to apply script
analysis in daily practice, covering its main building blocks
and key features. These are illustrated by a series of case
studies into various crime types. Moving beyond the use of
script analysis with the intent to disrupt the crime-commission
process, the author further explores the wider benefits of
the approach to both academics and practitioners. He
identifies what is needed most if we want to embrace the
full potential of script analysis for preventive purposes.
