  • Intersectional Crossroads: A Deeper Look Into Latinx Girl Gang Involvement and Affiliation

    Open Access•Kati Barahona-López, Sanna King et al.•ARTICLE•Journal of Contemporary Criminal…•2025

    Historically, scholars understood girl gang involvement through the lens of boy’s gang experience. Solely relying on the aforementioned demographic’s gang experience dismisses the intersectional nature of girl gang involvement. This article explores how Latinx teenage gang members describe and understand their involvement and/or affiliation with gangs by using multiracial feminism and intersectionality as theoretical frameworks. We found that mul…

  • Themes From Currently Incarcerated Individuals About How to Close the School-to-Prison Pipeline

    Open Access•Sanna King, David C May et al.•ARTICLE•The Prison Journal•2025

    The school-to-prison pipeline (STPP) is a metaphor for the pathway through which individuals are “pushed” out of school and into the criminal justice system. Research suggests that the disproportionate representation of marginalized groups in the STPP has important implications for their incarceration experiences as adults. Nevertheless, no research of which we are aware asks incarcerated individuals to provide recommendations to deal with the ST…

  • The Institutional Maze: The Complexity of Youth Schools and Juvenile Justice in Hawaiʻi

    Open Access•Sanna King•ARTICLE•Social Currents•2025•References: 9

    To explore the relationship between education and youth punishment in Hawaiʻi, a five-year qualitative study using feminist research methods was conducted between January 2012 and October 2017 in Oʻahu, Hawai’i. This study examined the experiences of youth at a high school group-counseling program, teens in a juvenile justice program, and adults who had experiences in the juvenile justice system in Hawaiʻi. This study explored the multiple proces…

  • School Violence Is More Than Physical: The Association Between Intersecting Identities and Perceptions of School Climate

    Open Access•Michayla D Mack, Sanna King et al.•ARTICLE•Youth & Society•2025•References: 45

    This study examines middle and high school students' perceptions of school climate using an intersectional theoretical framework. Participants include 812 middle and high school students across the United States. Using exploratory factor analysis, we created indexes to regress perceptions of school climate across four subscales on variables known to impact school climate. Our intersectional analysis highlights how students' various identities bey…

  • Is There an Immigration and School-Level Crime Link

    Open Access•Anthony A Peguero, Yasmiyn Irizarry et al.•ARTICLE•Crime & Delinquency•2023

    Contrary to the public misperception that immigrants are likely to be involved in criminal activities, evidence suggests that immigrants are less likely to engage in violence and criminal behavior at the individual level. Little is known, however, about the relationship between immigration, violence, and delinquency at the school-level. The present study draws from the nationally representative 2015 to 2016 School Survey on Crime and Safety to ad…

  • You're Being Watched All the Time: ”

    Sanna King, Jerry Flores•ARTICLE•Girlhood Studies•2023•References: 10

    Recent research on systems of social control demonstrates how young men experience surveillance and the harmful effects of these types of practices. However, missing from this discourse is the understanding of how girls experience these practices and the gendered challenges associated with surveillance. In this article, we discuss the experiences of 12 Latina girls who were interviewed inside a juvenile detention center in California. Drawing fro…

  • The push toward institutional control: Structural violence and youth in Hawaiʻi

    Open Access•Sanna King•ARTICLE•Analyses of Social Issues and…•2022

    Concerns surrounding juvenile delinquency point to neoliberal notions of youth responsibilization with no regard to the violence of structural oppressions and daily hardships, in which deviance could be a form of response. This article discusses the influence of and response to structural violence and oppression that resulted in daily hardships for youth, and for some youth, deviant behaviors that pushed them toward the criminal justice system. D…

  • Myanmar's Coup d'état and the Struggle for Federal Democracy and Inclusive Government

    Open Access•Sanna King, Anna S King•ARTICLE•Religions•2022•Cited by: 7•References: 13

    This article reviews the first twelve months of the civil disobedience movement in Myanmar following the 1 February 2021 coup d'état and its many dynamics and manifestations. Myanmar's 'Spring Revolution' generated a shared sense of national unity-overcoming gender, ethnic, religious and class boundaries, but raising questions about the long-term sustainability of nonviolent civil resistance in a state where the military has for decades wielded p…

  • Context of Reception and School Violence: Exploring the Nexus of Immigration, Race/Ethnicity, Place, and School Crime

    Open Access•Anthony A Peguero, Yasmiyn Irizarry et al.•ARTICLE•Sociology of Race and Ethnicity•2021

    Of course, ensuring safe environments in the U.S. educational system is paramount. It is also evident, however, inequalities associated with immigration, race/ethnicity, and situational context can impede school safety pursuits. Although prior research has revealed a pattern between “downward” assimilation and increased experiences with student-level violence and disorder for the children of racial/ethnic immigrants (i.e., first- and second-gener…

  • School procedural justice and being pushed out: Examining the Intersection of Sex and Race/Ethnicity

    Kay S Varela, Sanna King et al.•ARTICLE•Sociological Spectrum•2020•Cited by: 4•References: 33

    There is a growing body of research that explores how school punishment practices are disrupting educational progress. It is also known that educational success and failure are linked to sex and racial/ethnic inequalities. What remains less known is how school punishment and student perceptions of just and fair punishment practices are related to sex and racial/ethnic disparities, specifically with the likelihood of being pushed out. This study u…

  • Enhancing the Efficacy of Religious Peacebuilding Practice: An Exploratory Evidence-Based Framework for Assessing Dominant Risks in Religious Peacebuilding

    Open Access•Mark Owens, Mark Owen et al.•ARTICLE•Religions•2019•References: 24

    The 'risk assessment' in peacebuilding has become a standard, if sometimes slightly formulaic and performative, element of project design and written proposals. Largely driven by donor requirements and organisational procedures, the relatively new discipline and practice recognised as 'Religious Peacebuilding' has taken on many of the elements of 'secular' peacebuilding, including the risk assessment. This means that organisations increasingly ha…

  • Colonial criminology: A survey of what it means and why it is important

    Open Access•Sanna King•ARTICLE•Sociology Compass•2017•Cited by: 4•References: 6

    As the United States is experiencing unprecedented high rates of incarceration, especially of minorities and marginalized communities, racialized punishment has been addressed by many scholars (Alexander 2010; Wacquant 2001; Cole 1999, Tonry 2011; Stevenson 2014). Studies have shown the connection between racialized structures of inequality, punishment, and colonization (Agozino 2000, 2003; Irwin and Umemoto 2016; Bosworth and Flavin 2007). Howev…

  • Disowning Our Shadow: A Psychoanalytic Approach to Understanding Punitive Public Attitudes

    Shadd Maruna, Amanda Matravers et al.•ARTICLE•Deviant Behavior•2004•Cited by: 15•References: 36

    Punitive public attitudes cannot be easily explained by pointing to instrumental concerns (e.g., fear of crime, personal victimization, or real or perceived levels of crime). Instead, numerous observers have suggested that public punitiveness is more a symptom of free-floating anxieties and insecurities resulting from social change than a rational response to crime problems. We argue that these public concerns might be better understood by drawin…

  • Spirituality: Transformation and Metamorphosis

    Sanna King, Anna S King et al.•ARTICLE•Religion•1996•Cited by: 19•References: 5

    Spirituality has increasingly featured in writings about religion. This article explores the diverse and often contradictory ways in which this term is now being employed, it questions the reasons for its present popularity, and asks to what extent it can serve the purposes to which it is being put. Finally, by using the insights of contemporary anthropology and especially the work of Michael Carrithers, it suggests a more satisfactory way in whi…
