She points to differences between the US and Europe with regard to the "criminological enterprise", and to the differences in "doing science", "doing justice", and "doing crime". American criminology is a powerful influence in Europe, although there may be a tendency to overestimate the importance of American criminology, because of the dominance of publications in English.
