“…In some instances, this was done with the quiet acceptance of management (Grant , p.759). However, the divide between management and practitioners noted in the comments, as well as an increasing sense of new recruits not sharing the ‘old’ value base is a clear indicator of a lack of trust amongst some practitioners in their supervisors and their colleagues (see also Deering ). This raises questions about the extent to which practitioners feel supported by their organisation and feel a sense of shared values not only with their colleagues but the organisation as a whole – a core component of self‐legitimacy (Bradford and Quinton , p.1028).…”

In this article, we discuss the impact of changes to the organisational structure of probation on the legitimacy of probation practice. In particular, we explore how the division of probation into the National Probation Service (NPS) and Community Rehabilitation Companies (CRCs) could affect the self‐legitimacy felt by probation practitioners in both organisations and the implications for probation of a possible lack of overall legitimacy post‐Transforming Rehabilitation (TR). This article is based on empirical research exploring the views of probation staff of the (then) impending changes introduced via TR and reflections on what has happened since.

“…With regard to the differences between Foucault's original analysis and the studies of governmentality, see Lemke (2012). On the -partially conflicting -relation between penal managerialism and neoliberal (or advanced liberal) governmentality see Deering (2011);Vigour (2006). 7 This inefficient context in which a significant segment of deportation orders remain finally unenforced can also be witnessed in other EU countries (see Palidda 2008;Sciurba 2009).…”

The Managerial Turn: The Transformation of Spanish Migration Control Policies since the Onset of the Economic Crisis

Over the first decade of this century, Spain was a primary destination of international migrants. Successive Spanish governments have addressed this phenomenon by implementing a number of control measures, largely aimed at securing external and internal borders. However, the persistence of the economic crisis has led to the readjustment of the whole system of migration control. This article intends to shed light on the underlying rationales of the current transformation of Spanish policies within this field. It will scrutinise the implications of the managerial turn in the Spanish apparatus of deportation and conclude by outlining a range of legal reforms grounded in a human rights perspective.

“…But, beyond recognizing probation's late-modern reconfiguration as a method of managing risk and protecting the public, rather than as a means of restoring lost or errant fellow-citizens, Garland has relatively little to say about probation's precise place in and relationship with the 'culture of control'. Several others have undertaken valuable empirical work exploring how probation has adapted to political, social and technological changes (for example, Lynch 1998Lynch , 2000Robinson, 2002;McNeill et al, 2009;Deering, 2011;Werth, 2013; Worrall and Mawby 2013), but none have examined the inter-relationships between probation's cultural contexts, forms and functions. This paper's attempt to offer an original contribution to the sociology of punishment (and more specifically to a still nascent sociology of probation) therefore has two interdependent aspects.…”
