Between Grief and Relief: The Emotional Impact of Incarceration on Loved Ones
Scholars have detailed the impacts of imprisonment on loved ones through concepts such as collateral consequences, secondary prisonization, and symbiotic harms. However, these frameworks often overlook the complex range of emotions loved ones experience when their friend or family member is incarcerated. Drawing on 181 longitudinal interviews with 29 loved ones of incarcerated men across Canada, we use the sociology of emotions to explore the plu…

Collective Memory and Collective Forgetting: A Comparative Analysis of Second-Generation Somali and Tamil Immigrants and Their Stance on Homeland Politics and Conflict
Radicalization as Martialization: Towards a Better Appreciation for the Progression to Violence
The process whereby individual terrorists radicalize into violent extremism is typically understood as involving a series of individual mechanisms (e.g., grievance, attachment to friends, thrill), group processes (e.g., competition, social cohesion), and mass-public mechanisms. In this article, we demonstrate that this process is actually better understood as one of “martialization,” applicable to varying degrees to conventional and unconventiona…
Multiculturalism Under Confinement: Prisoner Race Relations Inside Western Canadian Prisons
What do race relations among Canadian prisoners tell us about national mythology, liberal multiculturalism, and racial colour-blindness? Drawing from almost 500 semi-structured interviews conducted with male prisoners inside four provincial institutions in Western Canada as part of the University of Alberta Prison Project, we analyse prisoners' perceptions of race and detail how their beliefs in Canada's national mythology - particularly multicul…
Transnational Radicalization, Diaspora Groups, and Within-group Sentiment Pools: Young Tamil and Somali Canadians on the LTTE and al Shabaab
In recent years, the Tamil and Somali diasporas have come under intense scrutiny by the media and national security agencies in Canada. This is due to concerns that members of both communities may hold political grievances associated with their respective homelands that could be acted upon by joining or supporting transnational terrorist groups. Drawing on 168 in-depth interviews with youth and young adults in Toronto’s Tamil and Somali diasporas…
When Crime Is a "Young Man's Game" and the Ethnographer Is a Woman: Gendered Researcher Experiences in Two Different Contexts
Ethnographers have long explored the challenges of gender dynamics in researcher-participant relationships, particularly in relation to attempts by female researchers to gain and maintain access to male research populations. However, little is known about these relationships in urban research settings characterized by crime and violence, where gender relations between young men and women are shaped by often extreme forms of social marginalization…
Gender identity and integration: Second-generation Somali immigrants navigating gender in Canada
Many right-leaning politicians claim that normative Islamic perspectives on gender are at odds with the Western values and act as barriers to immigrant integration. Our interviews with 256 second-generation Somali-Canadians, however, suggest that gender-egalitarian identities are achieved - they are constructed and deployed by our participants to practice integration and express belonging in Canada. In this study, we move beyond analysis of attai…
