Firesetting can have devastating effects, including loss of life and serious financial damage. With its potentially severe negative consequences, this type of behaviour has enormous impact on society. Remarkably, however, this phenomenon has received little attention in research, leaving the questions largely unanswered regarding how firesetters can best be individualised, caught by the police and treated in forensic mental health institutions. Based on the first large-scale research project studying firesetters in the Netherlands, this monograph provides answers resulting from analyses at a macro, meso and micro level. These analyses show that firesetters are a heterogeneous group, whose subgroups have their own specific diagnostics and characteristics. These characteristics can guide the police investigation in cases of firesetting. Furthermore, the subgroups found have specific treatment needs, as described in a differentiated treatment model. In order to be effective, treatment should focus on these specific needs. In short, this study contributes to knowledge on the firesetting phenomenon, highlighting the need for differentiation both in individualising and identifying as well as in treating firesetters. This book is part of the so-called Pompe series, which contains publications by staff members of the Willem Pompe Institute for Criminal Law and Criminology in Utrecht, and by authors closely aligned to the school of thought for which the Institute is known. One of its main characteristics has always been the combination of legal and social-scientific approaches to problems of criminal law. The central theme of the Institute's research programme is the protection and enforcement of fundamental rights in a changing world. Within that programme, research focuses on the position of vulnerable groups in relation to the state and on the significance of individual human rights in an international context.

New Perspectives on Arson and Firesetting: The Human-Fire Relationship is the first forensic text to move away from a sole focus on anti-social firesetting. The author presents a broader investigation of the role of fire in human life with a view to informing research and practice. This book examines the evolutionary, psychological and social significance of fire. Drawing on interdisciplinary literature and original research data, it challenges the existing understanding of arson and firesetting. A new concept – fire use – is introduced, which is conceptualised as sitting on a continuum from non-criminalised to criminalised behavior. The author combines her experience as a practitioner forensic psychologist with her own research to consider the practical application of an alternative perspective. This includes a particular focus on the assessment and treatment of fire setters and a call for a socially informed approach to prevention. The forensic scope, applied focus, and emphasis on the importance of interdisciplinary research and practice makes New Perspectives on Arson and Firesetting essential reading for students in fields such as anthropology, sociology, criminology, and psychology, as well as interdisciplinary scholars, forensic practitioners, and allied professionals. The author is donating her royalties in full to Pancreatic Cancer UK.

Nach schrecklichen Verbrechen wie einem Amoklauf herrscht oft Fassungslosigkeit darüber, wozu Menschen fähig sind. Über so viel sinnlose Gewalt und das Leid, das sie erzeugen. Doch Gewalt ist nie sinnlos, sie erfüllt für die Täter stets eine Funktion, wie der forensische Psychiater und Gerichtsgutachter Hans-Ludwig Kröber im Interview ab S. 12 betont. Um sie langfristig einzudämmen, ist es daher unerlässlich, die dahinterstehenden Motive zu verstehen. Das Sonderheft beschäftigt sich des halb insbesondere mit der Frage nach dem Warum – und nur am Rande mit den Folgen von Straftaten für Betroffene. Weiterführende Informationen für Menschen, die selbst Gewalt erleiden mussten, liefern die beiden "Gehirn&Geist"-Dossiers "Psychotherapie" und "Wenn die Seele den Halt verliert". Wissenschaftler ergründen die Wurzeln der Gewalt mit ganz unterschiedlichen Methoden. Die Kriminologin Britta Bannenberg hat zum Beispiel unzählige Gerichtsakten durchforstet, die Tagebücher von Amoktätern gelesen und mit diesen, Überlebenden sowie dem Umfeld gesprochen (ab S. 30). Andere Forscher obduzieren das Gehirn von Verbrechern oder suchen nach den neuronalen Schaltkreisen der Aggression (ab S. 16). Von weit reichender Bedeutung sind auch Erkenntnisse aus der Psychologie, die der Justiz etwa bei der Einschätzung von Zeugenaussagen und der Rückfälligkeit von Straftätern helfen. Ab S. 66 stellen wir schließlich verschiedene konkrete Maßnahmen zur Prävention vor. So tragen Kinder inhaftierter Eltern beispielsweise ein hohes Risiko, später selbst eine Straftat zu begehen. Ein Elterntraining im Gefängnis soll die Beziehung zum Kind stärken – und so den Teufelskreis der Gewalt Stück für Stück durchbrechen.
