Welcome! Ed Maguire is a Professor in the School of Criminology and Criminal Justice at Arizona State University. This page is a resource for students, colleagues, journalists, policymakers, and others interested in learning more about his research, teaching, and service activities.
Professor Maguire is a criminologist who does policy-relevant research that focuses primarily on policing and violence, both in the U.S. and abroad, with a particular emphasis on developing nations. His major externally funded research has included a six-year study of violent crime in Trinidad & Tobago, a four-year study of human trafficking in the Philippines, three national studies of police organization and innovation in the U.S, a national study of protest policing practices in the U.S., a study of Salvadoran gangs in El Salvador and the U.S., and an evaluation of the CureViolence initiative in Trinidad & Tobago. He was also part of a team that carried out an influential study of ballistic evidence processing practices in the U.S.
Dr. Maguire's recent research focuses heavily on procedural justice and legitimacy in policing and corrections, police-community relationships, police response to crowd events, employee health and wellness in policing, and crimes against women in India.
