Le Théâtre Sériel, l'Autre Scène de Crime : approche Projective Psychocriminologique du Meurtre en Série

摘要

The present research seeks to establish a new perspective on serial crime scene analysis, following a psycho-criminological paradigm. In order to achieve this goal, a multi-level methodology will be used, combining a phenomenological approach and statistical analyses, in a comparative manner. The discourses having stakes in the crime scene and its analysis will first be identified and presented, whether they be legal, medico-legal, police-related, « psych, » political, or media-related. Death scenes, be they violent or not, criminal or not, collected during a field research in two medical examiners' officers (one in France and one in the United States), will then be used statistically in order to illustrate the phenomenological complexity of the scene. These same data will then be qualitatively analyzed so as to give depth to the statistical analysis
