Course description

This course challenges students to think about how justice is carried out in a diverse society. Awareness of inequality, power and colonial structures are fundamental to our understanding of crime and criminal justice. Students will be exposed to theoretical and conceptual frameworks for understanding diversity, and gain an understanding of how marginalisation, inequality, and colonisation shape criminal justice systems and outcomes.
