  A new issue of International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy  is now available.

  We are extremely pleased to be publishing another double issue which includes a special issue on Fashion Justice. In this special issue, guest editors Alice Payne and Rowena Maguire (QUT, Australia) bring together scholars that examine multiple perspectives on the numerous injustices experienced in the ways garments are produced, consumed and disposed of within the globalised fashion system.

  The International Journal for Crime, Justice and Social Democracy is an open access, peer reviewed journal that seeks to publish critical research about common challenges confronting criminal justice systems around the world. The Journal publishes four issues per year, has no APCs and uses Creative Commons to licence articles – making criminology research accessible to all.

• Call for Papers: Green Criminological Dialogues: Voices from Africa

  2022-05-09

  Submissions are welcomed for a special issue concerned with green criminology issues in Africa.  

  Guest editors  want to engage in a dialogue with original thinkers from the African continent. This special issue is a consolidating step in furthering the dialogue between the North and the South, which positively exploits the Southern endogenous knowledge around ‘green’ (and marine/‘blue’) criminological topics.

  Guest Editors: David R. Goyes (University of Oslo, Norway), Annette Hübschle (University of Cape Town, South Africa), Ifesinachi Okafor-Yarwood (University of St Andrews, UK) and Nigel South (University of Essex, UK).
