We bring #CriticalCriminology and #PoliticalEcology together to analyse #GreenCollarCrime in #IWT in #European species - thereby challenging the ways #IWT is often cast as a problem of organised crime , and confined to Africa & Asia https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/09644016.2022.2156173

Continuing my expansion of my #bio and #introduction - I'm a #CriticalCriminology #student - police and prison #abolitionist.

I'm currently doing a bachelors and am hoping to go on to do #post-grad studies and work in #research and #teaching. I'd love to get involved in research and writing about #abolition.

Critical #criminology basically means that the focus is on the power structures that exist, how they can contribute to crime and what their responses to crime and justice are.

I believe that police and prisons need to be abolished completely. Interestingly, US criminologists in the 70s thought that crime rates were dropping so quickly that we'd be shutting down prisons over the next 20 years, and that by 2000-ish we wouldn't need prisons anymore - then the private prison industry showed how locking people in cages could make a LOT of money, and the prison populations skyrocketed.

Locking people in cages is inhumane. It doesn't work to deter crime, it doesn't solve crime. To quote Angela Davis - Prisons do not disappear social problems, they disappear human beings.

We need to focus on creating a world where we stop disappearing people and start fostering connection with each other.

If you're interested in abolition, some amazing books by Angela Davis are:
- Are Prisons Obselete?
- Freedom Is a Constant Struggle: Ferguson, Palestine, and the Foundations of a Movement
- Abolition. Feminism. Now.

#introduction
Hi!

I am a researcher in criminology and socio-legal studies.

I taught several modules covering topics of #socialcontrol, #law and #development, #criticalcriminology, #crime, #criminalisation, #penology, #CJS, and #sociologyofcommunity.

My research interests revolve around the interplay between the visible and hidden elements of social life, amongst them a concept of the #militarisationofbehaviours.
