Abstract

The paper deals with two surveys made by Hungarian penal authorities in 1983 and in 1998. The aim of the surveys was to study the demographic factors of the imprisoned criminals. Additional object was to measure the characteristics of criminal life-style. In order to this, author calculates indices of homogeneity and the density of recidivism. Both indices are measuring the criminal career, the first of them is measuring the characterristics of the series of committed crimes, the other the dangerousness of the committer.
