Description
This module will explore how crime is defined, the individual and environmental factors that are embedded within criminal convictions and how these shape trajectories towards and away from ‘criminal journeys’. It brings together philosophical, psychological and sociological approaches in order to explore the complex reasons of why and how people enter the criminal justice system, and the ways in which practical social actions might help them to exit. A distinctive feature will be to draw on the accounts of people with criminal convictions and of those involved in their rehabilitation, particularly in terms of education, training and employment.
