Feminist Criminology, with its innovative features, is published five times a year, focusing on research related to women, girls, and crime, all within the context of a feminist critique of criminology. As the official journal of the Division on Women and Crime of the American Society of Criminology, it is an international publication that emphasizes the analysis and theoretical discussion of crime from a gender perspective. The journal aims to provide a multidimensional viewpoint for understanding how gender influences criminal behavior, the criminal justice process, and crime prevention and intervention strategies.

The magazine encourages interdisciplinary research methods, including sociology, psychology, legal studies, and gender studies, to enrich our understanding of the complex relationship between gender and crime. The journal also pays special attention to women's experiences within the criminal justice system, including their roles as victims, offenders, and professionals. Furthermore, as a member of the Committee on Publication Ethics (COPE), the magazine is committed to upholding the ethical standards and quality of academic publishing, ensuring the integrity and fairness of research.
