Understanding carceral mobilities in and through lived experiences of incarceration
Recent scholarship on carceral mobilities critiques conceptualizations of carceral spaces as fixed and stable, and movements within or around sites of confinement as linear and horizontal. According to this critique, criminological studies of imprisonment have typically embraced what Turner and Peters (2017) ['Rethinking mobility in criminology', Punishment & Society 19(1), 96-114] term a 'sedentarist ontology' by failing to consider the complexi…
Seeing crime, feeling crime: Visual evidence, emotions, and the prosecution of domestic violence
Changes in prosecutorial strategies vis-a-vis domestic violence introduced new models of investigation that privilege images of victims. Drawing on case law, we argue these visual artefacts of victims’ injuries as well as their videotaped sworn statements describing their assaults constitute what Haggerty and Ericson call a ‘data double’, a virtual doppleganger who is meant to stand, often antagonistically in the stead of the flesh and blood vict…
Outcasts, performers and true believers: Responsibilized subjects of criminal justice
We draw on a field study of three drug treatment courts to show that responsibilization strategies create a paradox of bulimic exclusion and empowerment for individual subjects. By theorizing three different subjectivities emerging from our research sites (outcasts, performers and true believers), we show how subjects of intervention actively work to negotiate their own experiences of responsibilization

À partir de deux études empiriques portant sur des programmes de traitement de la toxicomanie en contexte judiciaire, les auteurs font la démonstration que les stratégies de responsabilisation conduisent à des effets paradoxaux en générant à la fois une exclusion boulimique et un pouvoir d’agir accru chez les individus. À travers une mise en forme théorique de trois types de subjectivités qui nous sont apparus dans le cadre de nos recherches empi…
Talking Heads and Bleeding Hearts: Newsmaking, Emotion and Public Criminology in the Wake of a Sexual Assault
The benevolent watch: Therapeutic surveillance in drug treatment court
This article offers an alternative to the traditional, technocentric and control oriented focus of surveillance studies. Drawing on field work in drug treatment courts (DTCs), I theorize the notion of ‘therapeutic surveillance’ as a seemingly benevolent form of monitoring which also troubles the ‘care/control’ dichotomy familiar to surveillance studies and social theory more generally. I look specifically at the roles of judges, treatment workers…
Spatio-Therapeutics: Drug Treatment Courts and Urban Space
This article explores the intersection of geography, law and treatment through the lens of drug treatment courts. We show how the courts facilitate addiction treatment in part through specific definitions of urban spaces as either healthy or unhealthy. We argue that these definitions rely on the problematic notions that drug use is a geographically fixed activity and that neighbourhoods deemed unhealthy (because of either drug using or criminal a…
When is an offender not an offender: Power, the client and shifting penal subjectivities
Despite the torrent of the punitive state, people in conflict with the law are made up as `clients' of criminal justice. This article looks curiously upon the figure of the client, positioning her as a translation of the offender who flags particular relationships of justice. While the client is nowhere to be found on the public face of punishment, she emerges in the most unlikely of places (prisons, courts) when looking at punishment's inner wor…

Criminal Artefacts: Governing Drugs and Users

Feminist Criminology: Gain, Loss and Backlash
Surviving the inevitable process of innovation, critique and response that accompanies conceptual invention, feminist criminology is now a rich and diverse field of scholarship and political activism. This article follows the main threads of feminist criminological thought (empirical, standpoint and post‐modern), outlining the tensions and connections between each. I then consider the political ground gained and lost by feminist criminologists, p…
Translating Justice and Therapy
Drawing on research from Canada’s two operating drug treatment courts, this paper explores the relationship between therapy and law, revealing a network in which expert knowledges are freed from expert actors. This uncoupling allows for the translation of the goals and interests of legal and therapeutic actors involved in the court. This uncoupling affects the ways in which both justice and therapy are imagined and articulated in these settings. …
Drugalities: The generative capabilities of criminalized ‘drugs’
Bring it on Home: Home Drug Testing and the Relocation of the War on Drugs
While the war on drugs is often claimed to have failed in multifarious ways, anti-drug strategies in the United States continue. The discourses through which anti-drug sentiments and policies are forwarded are, however, being reinvented in light of this failure, favoring an inclusionary and less state-centered disease trope for certain populations of drug users. In this article we argue that the privileging of the disease trope within anti-drug r…
Risking Saturday Night: Regulating Student Alcohol Use through `Common Sense
Through an examination of the ways in which universities regulate student drinking on campus, this article questions the claim that governing through techniques of risk is exclusive to actuarialism and scientific knowledge. It is argued that risk is not articulated solely through actuarial knowledge. Rather, risk can be expressed through many different forms of knowledge, including `common sense' knowledges that are completely removed from the ac…
Maidens at risk: Date Rape Drugs' and the Formation of Hybrid Risk Knowledges
The ill-defined set of substances and behaviours collected under the name 'date rape drugs' present an opportunity to rethink risk management and the ways in which risk is studied in governmentality analyses. We borrow and develop Bakhtin's notion of the 'chronotope' - the spatially specific temporality constituting each literary genre - to understand how the risks associated with certain illicit drugs consumed by youth at weekend parties are tho…
