Olivier Marie has been awarded an NWO VIDI Grant of € 800,000
Olivier Marie
Olivier Marie, Professor of Labour Economics at Erasmus School of Economics has been awarded a Vidi grant for his project entitled: “The Non-Making of a Criminal”. Crime has recently fallen significantly in the Netherlands with 25% less offences committed than a decade ago. The overall cost of crime to society has simultaneously increased making each offence committed ever more expensive and thus urgent to better understand this crime drop to further improve crime prevention efficiency. The main objectives of this project are twofold. First, advance scientific knowledge of the causes of crime. Second, propose novel efficient policy tools to prevent it. Crucially, it will seek to achieve both these goals while simultaneously developing the concept of a life-cycle approach as the norm in economics of crime research.
