Call for Papers: International Criminology Conference 2019
Call for Proposals:
International Criminology Conference 2019
Thursday, October 31st
at the Historic Quaker Meetinghouse in Washington DC
The PSO invites you to submit a proposal for the 3rd Annual International Criminology Conference. The purpose is to promote interdisciplinary dialogue about topics related to criminology in its broadest context, including causes, consequences both on a micro and macro level, control and prevention. The event brings together academics, policy makers, NGOs, business and social leaders from a variety of backgrounds, for discussion about issues. The event mirrors the interest of the PSO and its partners in fostering conversation about pressing policy concerns. The event is sponsored by the Policy Studies Organization, the International Journal on Criminology, and the American Public University.
Papers, roundtables, panels, are invited. We seek proposals based on the multidisciplinary study of the criminal phenomenon, making use of the humanities and social sciences to understand the crime, the criminal, the victim, criminality, and society's reaction to crime. Proposals should aim to take rigorous and critical approaches to criminality, and incorporate risk prevention and risk management strategies that take into account the dynamics of crime and the ethical and political stakes surrounding it. Papers and panels are invited as well on gun control, including the role of the NRA and issues on a state and municipal level. Other topics include, but are not limited to:
• Class and Crime
• Community Policing
• Crime and Terrorism
