| Abstract: | Joseph Semini, a superintendent of police, established himself as Malta's first criminologist with the publication of his short book "Some Points on Criminology" (c. 1926). This paper will discuss crime issues in Malta during the 1920s-30s of concern to Semini and examine the way in which he sought to address them with reference to criminological ideas in Italy and the United Kingdom. Semini's work, in light of criminological developments in Malta will be discussed |
