Reinvigorating Research 鈥 CCR/SCJ PGR Conference
Title: Reinvigorating research: methodological reflections, emergent or resurgent themes, interdisciplinary.
Date: 10 June 2022
- Abstract
-
The theme of the conference is Reinvigorating Research - within this broader focus, PGRs are invited to submit an abstract that connects with the following non-exhaustive list of themes:
- Methodological reflections: Challenges and opportunities in the (post)pandemic context.
- Emergent or resurgent themes: Inequality; access; risk governance; safety and securitisation.
- Interdisciplinarity: Developing new conversations and expanding horizons within the field of Security, Conflict and Justice.
We welcome and encourage expressions of interest by PGRs regardless of the stage of their research. The aim of this event is to bring together PGRs not only from criminology, but also from various other disciplinary backgrounds, in a friendly environment to engage with each other鈥檚 research. This will be a very beneficial opportunity for PGRs to present their work and get feedback, test ideas, reflect on methodological or other challenges brought upon by covid, and network with peers.

-
Date: 14-15 September 2016
A symposium led by Rowland Atkinson (University of 葫芦影业) and Gareth Millington (University of York)
The city has been central to the development of the field of criminology, it is both the site of the majority of many forms of crime and a type of social space that has generated many key insights into our understanding of why crime occurs and what the structural and social conditions and forces that shape the motivations of individuals and groups to pursue deviant careers or engage in harmful acts. The rationale for this symposium lies in our identification of the often disconnected ways in which criminology and urban studies have identified problems of crime, harm and disorder.
