CJRC researchers Professor Russell Hogg and Dr. David Fonseca are currently in Spain presenting at the conference Crises, Economy & Punishment: The influence of the great recession on Crime and Penality being hosted by ECRIM.
This conference aims to debate the influence of economic crises, and particularly of the Great Recession, on crime and punishment. Likewise, it seeks to contribute to the rich academic tradition which develops a politico-economic reading of crime and penality, whilst reflecting on the allegedly arising new common sense on punishment and on its forthcoming consequences.
Professor Hogg is a co-chair and keynote speaker at the conference presenting on “The Financialization of Society and the Monetization of Justice: Crime, Punishment and the Global Financial Crisis”.
Dr Fonseca is presenting a paper titled “While the crisis had not yet arrived: mass incarceration in times of social inclusion in the Brazilian democracy”.
