The Punishment and Society Blog: Getting Started

Following yet another excellent Law and Society conference, CRN 27 Punishment and Social Control (henceforth Punishment & Society) is kickin' in it up a notch with a snazzy new blog. Check back here for:

• CRN member spotlights featuring blurbs about folks' current or forthcoming research 
• Book roundups briefly highlighting new books that might be of interest to P&S scholars (some posts will just list new books, others will include a blurb from the publisher) 
• Article roundups briefly highlighting working papers/articles posted to SSRN or published articles as they come out 
• Actual posts by dedicated and guest bloggers writing about their research, current events, the field, whatever strikes their fancy 
• Public service announcements: conferences coming up, calls for papers, job/fellowship ads

A word of warning: posts may become sporadic at some times, particularly after periods of heavy posting. Make sure to check back at least once a month. There will be updates at least that often (but we'll aim for more frequent).

Do you have news, research, books, articles, anything to which you want to alert the P&S community? Email us at punishmentsocietyblog-at-gmail.com!
