Crime, Harm and Political Economy Research Group

Description

The Crime, Harm and Political Economy research group brings together scholars interested in the intersections of crime, harm, and political economy. The group is closely associated with the Ultra-Realist School of Criminology and provides a forum for research on contemporary social harms and forms of criminality. Members examine a wide range of issues, including human enhancement and the economy of the self, organised crime, counterfeiting, greenwashing and financial crime, the impacts of neoliberal political-economic change, consumer markets and the nighttime economy, and harms experienced by excluded or vulnerable groups. The group hosts a programme of research symposia, conferences, and research masterclasses throughout the year, fostering collaboration and intellectual exchange among researchers, practitioners, and postgraduate students.
