Fostering a culture of inclusive LGBTQIA+ research practice: Reflections on a community of practice in higher education
Numerous guidelines aim to support inclusive approaches to conducting research with LGBTQIA+ people. Implementing these in practice, however, requires deliberate consideration of the situated social and cultural contexts that shape research (co-)design, participant recruitment, data collection and analysis. This commentary considers the imperative to foster a culture of inclusive research and practice with LGBTQIA+ populations through a higher ed…
Historical crime and criminal justice classifications: Data and methodological considerations
This article reports on a large-scale historical criminology project to create longitudinal datasets of Australian prosecutorial data. We reflect on the decade-long process of digitization, transcription, classification, and aggregation that transformed hundreds of thousands of handwritten manuscript records into open-source, machine-readable data now readily available for analysis by researchers. Secondly, we explore the possibilities of develop…
Strengths, Experiences, and Learning Support Needs of System-Impacted Students in Criminology and Law
University systems have long acknowledged the learning needs of diverse student cohorts, including those based on race, socio-economic status, and disability. Universities have far less often recognized the relationship between these groups and the differential impacts of the criminal legal system that affect education pathways and experiences. At a time when the expansion of diversity initiatives characterizes higher education, this paper draws …
Historical criminology and colonialism
Historical criminology, developing over the last few decades as a defined field of inquiry, has had a recent renaissance, resulting in the publication of leading texts, edited collections and scholarship, setting agendas for its methodologies and impact. We discuss the epistemological and methodological focus of this body of literature, which has been primarily centred on class-based historical criminal justice studies of Britain and the United S…
Sexual violence and male prisons: An Australian queer genealogy
This paper investigates the history of sexual violence in Australian male prisons. It traces a genealogy of sex between incarcerated men from the penal colonies to the 1990s, drawing on a range of criminal justice and sexological and cultural records to show how sexual violence inflected both conceptions and experiences of homosexual prisoners. We outline how these inmates shifted from being perceived as an institutional threat to a victim of the…
Immigration and Criminality: Australia's Post‐War Inquiries
The relationship between immigration and crime rates has long been a topic of robust debate in criminology and sociology, especially for scholars of the United States. Researchers in those fields have highlighted divergent factors to explain high arrest rates including the presence of ethnic gangs, media reporting, racial profiling, over‐policing of immigrant communities, and wider issues of social dislocation brought about by migration. By contr…
Sharing the archive: Using web technologies for accessing, storing and re-using historical data
Historical data pose a variety of problems to those who seek statistically based understandings of the past. Quantitative historical analysis has been limited by researcher's reliance on rigid statistics collected by individuals or agencies, or else by researcher access to small samples of raw data. Even digital technologies by themselves have not been enough to overcome the challenges of working with manuscript sources and aligning dis-aggregate…
British Migrants, Criminality and Deportation: Shaping the Australian Post-war Approach
The British preference of Australian immigration policy was challenged by the demands of a rapidly expanding post-war programme overseen by the newly established Department of Immigration. An essential function of the department was the screening of prospective migrants against criteria shaped by national population policy preferences. This paper examines Australia’s post-war immigration security screening policies in domestic and international c…
Race and Justice in an Australian Court: Prosecuting Homicide in Western Australia, 1830–1954
Contemporary rates of incarceration of Indigenous peoples in Australia are generally seen as quite recent in origin, an unwanted outcome of the emergence of Indigenous people into full citizenship from the 1960s. Yet for only relatively short periods were Indigenous people in Australia excluded from the full implications of the rule of law in its mode of criminal jurisdiction; for the most part, they were considered British subjects. Having been …
Lawyers’ Strategies for Cross-Examining Rape Complainants: Have we Moved Beyond the 1950s
Despite widespread reforms to legislation and policy, rape complainants still find cross-examination distressing, demeaning and humiliating. We conducted a systematic and holistic examination of cross-examination strategies to discern: (1) the range of tactics that defence lawyers use to challenge rape complainants’ accounts; and (2) whether—and if so, how—the approaches used currently differ from those used prior to the reforms. We compared the …
