The Dynamics of Desistance
Cullompton : Willan ( 2010 ) 228pp . £40.00hb ISBN 978-1-84392-783-9 Some desistance researchers find it difficult to pin down the substance of what they are studying without assigning people to the state of either offending or non-offending. In reality ‘desisters’ may, like Schrodinger's cat, encompass two ways of being at the same time. Criminological research has tried to deal with this complexity by distinguishing between primary and secondar…
The governance of crime and the negotiation of justice
With increasing frequency, criminologists have documented the growth of a culture of control that has ushered in repressive penal policies and diminished people’s freedoms. Contra the portrayal offered by these ‘criminologies of catastrophe’, this article argues that there are several factors within contemporary European societies that militate against authoritarian rule and impel justice towards a negotiated model. European political integration…
The provision of policing and the problem of pluralism
The problem of policing is often portrayed as providing sufficient personnel to sate demand. Pluralism, however, complicates the issue since the public disagree among themselves over which activities or individuals should be policed. In turn, police priorities may differ from these demands, inciting public discontent. In these circumstances, how can public policing sustain its legitimacy? Lessons can be learnt from how political theories have gra…
Accounting for the Diversity of Policing in Ireland
In the last five years, legitimate concerns have been aired over incidents of alleged misconduct by the Irish public police, An Garda Síochána. The case for external oversight of their actions and greater operational accountability has been pressed. However, this debate may be neglecting other crucial developments in the field of policing. These include the diversification of police strategies beyond that employed in ‘policing the streets' and th…
The punitive consequences of consumer culture
This article takes as its starting point a public punitiveness that is novel in its lack of sympathy for and stridency against offenders. It is suggested that this punitiveness can be partly explained by the ascent of consumerism as an axial principle of life today. The ideas of René Girard are used to elaborate upon this suggestion. Girard argues that disputes emerge within cultures when there are no public prohibitions on consumption. Desires c…
Cultured punishments
Increasingly, criminologists have made reference to Mary Douglas’s writings on risk. Less frequently is it noted that Douglas’s work on risk is dependent upon a more fundamental classificatory scheme, what she calls grid-group theory. This theory measures cultural biases in terms of their level of prescriptiveness of norms (grid) and affiliation between individuals (group). This theory gives four distinctive cultural types, each of which has dist…
Punishment and Conditional Citizenship
This article enquires whether modern practices of punishment are undergoing a transformation by investigating the effect that the development of citizenship has had upon modern punishment. Citizenship requires that people expand their horizons of recognition and treat people, who had previously been disregarded, as equals. This is one of the primary cultural influences upon punishment and explains why modern punishment has always partly been an i…
The Government of Youth
This article is concerned with the Crime and Disorder Act, introduced by the Labour government in England & Wales. The Act’s central aim is the reduction of crime and disorder within local communities, and young people are seen as the main locus of disorder. A range of new sanctions is provided to correct the behaviour of young people. The Act has been widely castigated for continuing the intolerance of the previous Conservative administration an…
The Civilizing Process and the Janus-Face of Modern Punishment
The worth of Norbert Elias's theory of a `civilizing process' when applied to the study of changing forms of punishment is being increasingly recognized. His work seems to offer a more credible explanation for changes in punishment than previous theories; structural changes can be linked with shifts in people's sensibilities, answering the crucial question as to why people would opt for a less physically brutal punishment, without falling into `W…
