Submission guidelines
The series aims to develop a genuinely international body of scholarship in historical criminology, and welcomes proposals from established and early career scholars.
Work will be published in various formats, including monographs, short-form books and edited collections. Studies that make a contribution to criminology are welcome on any topic.
The series embraces the rich topical diversity of contemporary criminology, including but not limited to studies of offenders and offending (including crimes of the powerful), criminal justice institutions and processes, and wider processes of social control, regulation and governance. Furthermore, the series hopes to exhibit widely varied perspectives on history and 'the historical', including (but not limited to) the following approaches:
- Studies of specific historical periods
- Comparative histories across time or place
- Work on long-term processes of continuity and change
- Works which use history to test or develop criminological theories
- Works which use history to explore criminological concepts
- Genealogies or ‘histories of the present’
- Studies of popular or institutional memory and mythology
- Studies of historic atrocities or injustices and their contemporary legacies (including in postcolonial and post-conflict settings)
- Historical explorations of possible futures
- Histories of criminology and criminological thought.
