Welcome to the Thoughts from the Criminology Team blog!

As you see it is full of short opinion pieces, as well as longer narratives, focused on all different facets of criminology, as well as wider social issues (including academia). The Thoughts from the Criminology Team bloggers are predominantly drawn from the discipline of Criminology, with a regular dose of legal expertise provided by Ayshea. In addition, we have regular input from students, graduates, guest speakers, as well as a number of honorary criminologists.

The ethos of the blog is to provide an inclusive space to explore a diversity of subjects, from a wide range of standpoints. It forms part of our longstanding commitment to public criminology, taking complex academic ideas to a wider audience.

If you have any suggestions for subjects you might like to appear on the blog, or if you have a connection with the team and fancy writing an entry, please get in touch.
