Tittle passed away on May 6, 2021 at the age of 82 (Charles spent his career illuminating the theoretical intricacies and empirical properties of social control. His early work focused on deterrence and the mechanisms through which sanctions affect behavior. This work, coupled with Charles' interests in theory testing, measurement and integration, inspired his control-balance theory. The resulting book, Control Balance: Toward a General Theory of Deviance (1995), won the American Society of Criminology's (ASC) Michael J. Hindelang Award and the American Sociological Association's (ASA) Albert J. Reiss Distinguished Scholarship Award. In the following years Charles made significant contributions to cross-national research on causes of crime in understudied socio-cultural contexts around the globe. Charles published several books and his many articles (often co-authored with graduate students and junior faculty whom he mentored over the years) appeared in our discipline's top journals, including Criminology, a journal for which he served five years as editor (1992-1997). In this role he helped to cement Criminology as the premier outlet for cutting-edge, theory-driven criminological scholarship. In recognition of his contributions, he was inducted as a fellow of the ASC and received ASC's Edwin Sutherland Award for a career of distinguished scholarship.) <https://asc41.com/obituaries/> People.com (website), viewed Sept. 30, 2022: Charles R.
