Abstract

The strong relationship between offending and victimization has now been firmly established over the past 80 years. Research from different time periods, across diverse locations, and on various samples indicates that offenders are more likely to be victims and vice-versa. However, there are some differences in the strength of this relationship, particularly over the life course. This chapter will introduce the foundations of the victim-offender overlap, discuss recent empirical evidence on the overlap, consider the victimization-offending relationship over the life course, and review challenges for future research.
