United Nations World Crime Surveys: Fifth Survey, 1990-1994
The Fifth United Nations Survey, covering the years
1990-1994, was designed to collect data on the incidence of reported
crime and the operation of criminal justice systems with a view to
improving the dissemination of that information globally. To that end,
the survey facilitates an overview of trends and interrelationships
among various parts of the criminal justice system to promote informed
decision-making in its administration, nationally and
crossnationally. Variables describe combined police and prosecution
expenditure by year and by country, number of police personnel by
gender, total number of homicides by country and by city, number of
assaults, rapes, robberies, thefts, burglaries, frauds, and
embezzlements, amount of drug crime, number of people formally charged
with crime, age of suspects, number and gender of prosecutors, number
of individuals prosecuted and the types of crimes prosecuted, gender
and age of individuals prosecuted, types of courts, number of
individuals convicted and acquitted, numbers sentenced to capital
punishment and various other punishments, number of convictions on
various charges, number of individuals sentenced and in detention,
number of prisoners, sentence lengths, and prison demographics.
