Studies of criminology and criminal justice in Taiwan tend to focus on the analysis of criminal behaviors. Even though government agencies such as the police, the prosecution, the judiciary, and the Ministry of Health and Welfare have victim data based on their business scope, these data are scattered and incomplete, lacking a unit to assimilate. Using data collected by literature review, in-depth interview, and focus groups, this study intends to inspect the current quality of victim data and provide suggestions and probable approaches for inter-agencies data link and consolidation. The purpose of this report is to explore the feasibility and specific practice for Academy for the Judiciary in establishing the database of crime victims, and to propose the essential variables for future database. This report is divided into six chapters: research background, methodology, international crime victim database and survey, current Taiwan victim data quality inspection, preliminary suggestions for future crime victim database establishment, and conclusion and suggestion. In Chapter 1, the background indicates that the current crime victim data is designed and collected according to the use of the authorities, and the lack of detailed description of the data output may lead to misuse. Chapter 2 introduces the methodology. In Chapter 3, we describe the crime victim database in the United Nations, the European Union, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia. It is found that despites the co-existence of official statistics and crime victim survey, the former is merely served as a conservative display for victimization situation. In Chapter 4, through interviewing practitioners and searching domestic data, we investigate the distribution of Taiwan current crime victim data, the attitude of the authorities in providing and expanding victim data, Taiwan crime victim survey introduction, and the probable using methods of victim data. Chapter 5 provides preliminary suggestions for future crime victim database establishment. Based on the data collected from focus groups and foreign information, we deem that being familiarized with the data definition, collection process, management, and application is essential for inter-agencies data integration. Moreover, there must be mutual trust and reciprocity between agencies; otherwise, legal regulations must be formulated. The data should be expanded to include information on the needs of victims and the services provided by the government to assist the improvement of government polices. Chapter six summarizes conclusion and suggestions for victim data assimilation. Primarily, this report proposes five phases in victim database establishment: establish a domestic basic victim information portal network platform, expand the platform containing information, establish interactive data functions, execute victim survey projects, and organize an integrative center for data analysis and research. |
