My research examines crime and poverty in the lead-up to and aftermath of the Great Society in the United States and asks the foundational question: Why did the punitive shift in criminal justice and welfare policy happen? I focus on the multifaceted careers of James Q. Wilson and Daniel Patrick Moynihan to blend policy, intellectual, and political approaches.
