Abstract
Contemporary criminology grew out of mass transformations in society during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries – a period which witnessed the formation and consolidation of cities as we know them today and the restructuring of "the urban" following the emergence of the information age. Hence, extensive debate, research and theoretical development of criminology was formed primarily within the urban domain: consider, for example, the influence of the Chicago School and the School's pivotal role in the rise of urban ecology-based approaches to explaining crime and the development of crime prevention programs
