Hijacking Banksy : using a contemporary art mystery to increase academic readership

In English

Författare

Summary, in English

In this article I examine the methodological and ethical rigor of a geographic profiling study and resulting article, published in 2016 in "Journal of Spatial Science", which identifies by name a candidate for being the artist known as Banksy.

I demonstrate that the article is characterized by a number of methodological flaws which fundamentally undermine the researchers’ basis for determining Banksy’s identity.

On this background I argue that the researchers’ decision to include a specific name in the article is ethically problematic.
