“…My argument contributes to the public criminology literature by spotlighting how social justice concerns are simultaneously advanced and undermined by contradictory public criminological interventions, a process that problematizes struggles for racial justice and the push for social change following the police murder of George Floyd. This research also contributes to scholarship on public criminology more generally by adding to the limited studies that investigate criminologists' media statements (see Richards et al, 2020) and by bolstering evidence that criminology remains a divided discipline, particularly over how criminology should be done (Bosworth & Hoyle, 2011).…”

“…What public criminology is, who it serves, and how it is practiced and by whom, remain contested (Henne & Shah, 2020;Nelund, 2014;Piché, 2015;Ruggiero, 2012). Given these debates over public criminology, it is somewhat surprising that little research has empirically investigated who appears in the media, how often they do so, and what kinds of statements they make (Richards et al, 2020). Research also illustrates that social scientists use social media to engage the public and distribute materials in the public realm, but scholarship in this area remains underdeveloped (Schneider, 2014(Schneider, , 2015(Schneider, , 2017Schneider & Simonetto, 2017;Wood et al, 2019).…”

Public criminology is concerned with public understandings of crime and policing and public discussions of such matters by criminologists and allied social scientists. For the purposes of this paper, these professionals are individuals identified by journalists on the basis of academic credentials or university affiliation as those who can speak to crime matters. This qualitative study investigates media statements made by criminologists and allied social scientists following the 2020 murder of George Floyd with two questions in mind: How have they responded to debates over reforming, defunding, and abolishing police? What insight can these responses provide about public criminology more generally? I analyze statements offered by criminologists in news reports and on Twitter using Qualitative Media Analysis, an approach that emphasizes the processes through which discourse is presented to audiences. I argue that recent criminological debates in the media concerning the future of policing have exposed unresolvable tensions among scholars who engage in the practice of public criminology, suggesting that the public is not receiving coherent, authoritative messages about these issues. The findings also raise questions about public criminology and illuminate new concerns regarding scholarly expertise related to knowledge claims and credibility relative to social justice.

“…Upaya Preventif adalah pendekatan preventif berfokus pada tindakan yang diambil untuk menciptakan lingkungan yang lebih aman dan mencegah terjadinya tindak pidana geng motor. Beberapa langkah yang termasuk dalam upaya preventif adalah penempatan anggota kepolisian yaitu anggota kepolisian ditempatkan di lokasi-lokasi yang dianggap rawan, di mana sering terjadi pertemuan atau tawuran geng motor (Richards, 2020). Tujuannya adalah untuk menciptakan rasa aman dan mencegah potensi kejahatan.…”

“…Undoubtedly, such pressures apply to the university sector, with quantitative metrics of 'success' taking primacy within neoliberal higher education institutions (see Connell, 2019). Within such 'entrepreneurial universities' (Slaughter & Leslie, 1997), generalised competition represents a behavioural imperative informing staff research (Craig et al, 2014), engagement (Richards et al, 2020), and teaching (Shore and Wright, 2003) through the tools of audit culture (Dardot and Laval 2014). As a result, the broader context of the neoliberal university may curtail the possibilities for employing AI in PR.…”
