Abstract: Slightly more than 100 years have passed since the emergence of criminology as an independent scientific discipline. Therefore it isn’t surprising that there are still loads of discussions on criminology’s position, role, and subject, as well as its future in terms of research and education. These discussions are being dictated predominantly by varying scientific conceptions and academic backgrounds, although from time to time certain elements of particular and non-scientific interests temporarily resurface in the turbulent sea of arguments. Such tendencies can be found across the globe, as well as currently in Croatia. Therefore contemplations about criminological research and education as well as criminology’s role in Croatia are not only justified, but long overdue. Serious and systematic academic debates on these issues are almost non-existent in Croatia, and as it seems the situation in Turkey is very much alike. That is why this is merely an attempt to start of such debates, rather than it is the presentation of full-fledged answers, which claim to be correct or even final. The article will provide an overview of the state of art in Croatian criminological research and education, with a special focus on the Zagreb Faculty of Law’s recently established Max Planck Partner Group for ‘Balkan Criminology’. It will also provide a comparative outlook into common Croatian-Turkish criminological developments and future cooperation that will hopefully generate ‘food for thoughts’ and incentives for new initiatives.
