Presentation of project findings at International Conference (European Criminology Conference, Florence, 2023)
The team organised two panels at the conference to present findings and to engage in conversation with other related work happening elsewhere with a view to opening up new ways thinking about the relation of in/security to the ‘environment’.
Professor Ian Loader chaired the discussion in the first conference panel which included contribution from ourselves on The (new) ecology of security: Tribulations of sustainable security in an English town.
Other contributors were:
Julie Berg, University of Glasgow; Clifford Shearing, University of Cape Town on Normalised crises, sense-making and everyday security governance
Kajsa Lundberg, University of Melbourne on Climate security and urban everyday solutions:
Nina Peršak, Institute for Criminal-Law Ethics and Criminology, Ljubljana; Anna Di Ronco, University of Essex on Reimagining security through redefining incivility, liveability and legitimate urban governance
Professor Richard Sparks chaired the second conference panel which included a contribution from ourselves on ‘Seeing disorder’ in an English Town
Other contributors were:
Anna Souhami, University of Edinburgh on Environments of vulnerability: landscape, weather, light and darkness in remote island policing
Leo Kritikos, University of Edinburgh on Community led planning for safety: A poisoned chalice?
Alison Young, University of Melbourne; Hristijan Popovski, University of Melbourne; Kajsa Lundberg, University of Melbourne on Social Exclusion and Spatial Justice in the Volumetric City
Both Panels were very well attended and there was a lively discussion and interest in our two presentations.
