Criminology and Criminal Justice Through the Lens of Queer Theory: Roundtable Discussion

We are delighted to invite you to a Roundtable Conversation on Exploring Criminology and Criminal Justice through the Lens of Queer Theory and/or Queerness. This event is held on the occasion of the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia and is hosted by the University of Cambridge's Faculty of Law and the Justice and Society Research Centre (at the Institute of Criminology). This interdisciplinary discussion will draw on research from a range of contexts to reflect on how queer theoretical and methodological approaches can enrich scholarship in criminology and criminal justice studies.

The speakers are Sharon Cowan (University of Edinburgh), SM Rodriguez (London School of Economics), and Aube Tollu (Lund University). The event will take place in Sidgwick Hall in Newnham College from 2pm to 4:30pm on Friday, 16th May.  The discussion will be followed by a drinks reception to provide an informal opportunity for interaction and collaboration.
