Abstract
Although the study of criminology and criminal justice in Pakistan have not received much attention over the years, this article presents a „new‟ model of criminological and criminal justice inquiry that may offer some promise for enlivening the study of crime and criminal justice within a broader context that is more reflective of the complex world we live in today. By reviewing the evolution of the study of crime from a provincial to comparative and international perspective, it is suggested that academic criminology scholars in Pakistan (and elsewhere around the world) embrace a global criminology perspective in an effort to better understand, explain, describe, and predict crime trends not only within Pakistan but in relation to its role and place in the international community. Global criminology is offered as a new form of criminological inquiry.
