Willem Adriaan Bonger  

Definition(s)

  • Willem Adriaan Bonger was a preeminent Dutch criminologist and scholar whose pioneering research transcended the landscape of criminological thought at a historical juncture when biologically based explanations of crime predominated. His work was rooted in economic determinism, as a lens through which he believed that examinations of the etiology of crime were best explored. [Source: Encyclopedia of Race and Crime; Bonger, Willem Adriaan]
