CJC Seminar: ‘Tackling Whiteness as a Decolonizing Task in Contemporary Criminology’
Speaker: Rod Earle (The Open University)
Room: S2.09, 3:00-4:30pm

In the 21st century criminology has become a vigorous and dynamic discipline attracting growing numbers of students and developing new research programmes. In this lecture I will explore how aspects of whiteness in criminology can be identified and made more open to challenge. Focussing on criminology in England I recognise the global reach, scale and variations of whiteness and the need to attend to historically generated specifics at the local level. I argue that making whiteness better understood and more visible in criminology increases the prospects of decolonising justice, confronting its racisms and promoting more egalitarian convivial futures.
