Kevin Schnepel on the Economics of Crime - a podcast by Simon Fraser University, Department of Economics

Kevin Schnepel is a new faculty member in SFU's Economics department, moving over here last year from the University of Sydney. In this conversation with PhD student Marieh Azizirad, he describes his interesting and roundabout path to economics and, in particular, the economics of crime. He walks us through a recent paper on the effects of giving accused criminals second chances and discusses the policy implications of his work in general.
