Despite being in existence for over a quarter century, costing multiple millions of dollars and affecting the lives of hundreds of thousands of individuals, sex offender registration and notification (SORN) laws have yet to be subject to a book-length treatment of their empirical dimensions - their premises, coverage, and impact on public safety. This volume, edited by Wayne Logan and J.J. Prescott, assembles the leading researchers in the field to provide an in-depth look at what have come to be known as 'Megan's Laws', offering a social science-based analysis of one of the most important, and controversial, criminal justice system initiatives undertaken in modern times.

  • Presents key historical background that contextualizes current SORN laws and research
  • Provides a framework for understanding essential empirical research to help readers think carefully about the complexities of criminal justice policy and its potential reform
  • Discusses the future of SORN laws, including how they relate to other emerging community-based social control strategies.
