Nazarbayev University School of Sciences and Humanitieshttp://nur.nu.edu.kz/handle/123456789/7664This study focuses on the phenomenon of near repeat victimization in the cities of Astana and Almaty. In order to understand the mechanisms underlying this phenomenon and identify its characteristics in the context of two different metropolitan areas in Kazakhstan, we analyze contemporary crime data and academic research. We hypothesize that factors such as the geographical distribution of crime and the effectiveness of policing interventions may have a significant impact on the frequency and nature of repeat crime in these cities. The results of our study will allow us to better understand the nature of this phenomenon and offer recommendations for improving measures to prevent the near repetition of victimization in Astana and Almaty.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United StatesType of access: Open Accessnear repeat victimization theorycrime patternscriminologycrime in Kazakhstanspatial analysiscrime preventiontheftscriminal justicecrime analysisBachelor's thesis
