Reader in Criminal Justice and Social Complexity, University of Portsmouth
I have worked in ICJS since 2003 and research, write and teach on issues related to criminology and criminal justice with a particular focus on the application of complexity theory to the ethics and practice of criminal justice. I lead the Transformative Justice Research Cluster in the Institute of Criminal Justice Studies at the University of Portsmouth which focuses on the work of prison and probation services in the UK and abroad and the ways these relate to social justice.
