North South Criminology Conference

6th NORTH/SOUTH IRISH CRIMINOLOGY CONFERENCE
21st – 22nd JUNE 2010
UNIVERSITY OF ULSTER, BELFAST CAMPUS
CALL FOR PAPERS
The 6th North/South Irish Criminology Conference will be hosted by the School of Criminology, Politics and Social Policy at the University of Ulster, Belfast Campus on Monday, 21 June and Tuesday, 22 June 2010.
The aim of the conference is to provide a forum for academics, post-graduate researchers, community activists, practitioners and policy makers in the fields of criminology and criminal justice to come together to exchange ideas and disseminate research. This is of particular significance given the impending devolution of policing and justice in Northern Ireland, and increasing awareness, throughout Ireland, of gender-specific needs within criminal justice processes, and the needs of families and victims.
Panels will include but are not limited to:
• Addressing the Needs of ‘Victims’ and ‘Offenders’
• City Transformation and Crime
• Criminal Justice Processes and Accountability
• Future Directions in Criminology
• Gender and Criminal Justice
• Globalisation, Migration and Immigration
• Policing, Regulation and Surveillance
• Prisoners, Detainees and their Families
• Restorative Justice Practice and Theory
• Crimes of the Powerful
• Children, Young People and Criminal Justice
