Joint enterprise in England and Wales
The law in England and Wales (as in Australia and other jurisdictions) enables a person to be convicted of an offence committed by another using complicity liability, sometimes termed 'joint enterprise'.In England and Wales, 'joint enterprise' has been widely criticised for: failing to distinguish between the moral and legal culpability of the person who commits the substantive offence and those on the periphery of it; being disproportionality ap…
Adolescent health and well‐being in sub‐Saharan Africa
In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), adolescents make up around one-quarter of the population who are growing up in a rapidly urbanizing environment, with its associated risks and benefits, including impacts on health, psychosocial development, nutrition, and education. However, research on adolescents' health and well-being in SSA is limited. The ARISE (African Research, Implementation Science and Education) Network's Adolescent Health and Nutrition Stu…
Impacts of school feeding on educational and health outcomes of school-age children and adolescents in low- and middle-income countries
Silence, joint enterprise and the legal trap
The so-called ‘wall of silence’ presents a threat to successful police investigations and criminal trials. Explanations for it have focused on cultural narratives, including distrust in the police, a ‘no snitching’ culture and manipulative ‘professional criminals’. Drawing on a study of serious multi-handed violence and ‘joint enterprise’ as a legal response, this article highlights the role of the law, and its agents, in generating silence among…
A ‘good job’ in difficult conditions
‘Joint enterprise’ is described as a ‘dragnet’ that draws disproportionate numbers of black and minority ethnic young men into the criminal justice system in England and Wales. While stereotyping by the police and prosecution has been blamed for this distributive injustice, empirical research on joint enterprise is limited. This article presents the findings from a study of homicide and ‘gang’ detectives in London in which they rebut accusations …
The Politics of Sociology
This chapter provides an analysis of the meaning of Harold Garfinkel to the politics of methodology. In The Coming Crisis of Western Sociology, Alvin Gouldner (1970) analyzes the contributions of Erving Goffman and Garfinkel and exposes their technical and political meanings to professional scrutiny. Gouldner is very perceptive in his technical analysis of Garfinkel and Goffiman and extremely helpful to our understanding of their political meanin…
Gang talk and gang talkers
Recent years have witnessed a proliferation of interest in the phenomenon of the gang both in the UK and across Europe. Such concern has been driven forward by growing reports of gang activity reported in the media, circulated by populist politicians as well as by academic researchers convinced the European gang has been ignored for too long. This anxiety has coalesced in a perception that the gang is a serious and growing problem, that the rise …
Crime and silence
This article examines the constitutive role that silence performs in relation to crime; an area of study that remains relatively under theorized in criminological traditions more attuned to examining the noise that those party to the criminal act engage in, rather than the silence they also do. This article seeks to rectify this deficit by considering silence as the absent presence of crime. It outlines a methodological approach for excavating si…
