This book introduces the ‘Southern criminology’ movement; explores its theoretical, methodological, and philosophical tools; offers analytical accounts on the development of criminological thoughts in marginalised regions; and showcases the cutting edge of criminological research from Southern settings.Southernising Criminology is structured into three parts. The first part provides theoretical and methodological insights into how criminology can be Southernised, including renowned social scientists who share concerns for the need to reconceptualise the centre, the periphery, and their relations. The second part brings the reader up-to-date with the state of criminological research in different parts of the world and how far this landscape has changed when introducing Southern perspectives. The third part shows first-hand examples of how Southern criminology is done, with its challenges and transformative potential for criminological knowledge. Bringing together contributions from leading scholars working across the five continents and drawing on issues such as state criminality, violent crime, criminal justice practices, and state and non-state punishment, this book offers a critical account of the problems of metropolitan thinking, colonial and imperial power relations, and Western ethnocentric approaches to criminology. It offers a nuanced and grounded reflection on how things are being done differently and why that is important.An accessible and compelling read, this book will appeal to students and scholars of criminology, sociology, politics, and policy makers from around the world who are interested in the field of criminology and are aware of the urgent need for it to be decolonised and democratised.

Challenging the Northern-centric approach that has dominated the literature on punishment-and-society, Punishment in Latin America draws on innovative theoretical perspectives to make sense of punishment, penal trends, institutions and practices in peripheral settings, taking Latin American countries as its case studies.Engaging with both historical trajectories and recent theoretical perspectives, contributors examine different aspects and dimensions of punishment and prison, identifying specific dynamics and features in a truly South-South conversation. Taking part in contemporary movements to decolonize, southernize and democratize criminology, the chapters focus on in-depth case studies covering Argentina, Brazil, Chile, Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Uruguay and Venezuela, as well as wider, comparative analyses that go beyond country-specific contexts. Placing a critical emphasis on the insufficiency of Northern concepts and arguments to make sense of punishment within Latin America, the authors engage with these theories while at the same time avoiding a sense of subordination or dependency disconnected from their own contexts.Bringing together researchers working across Latin American, European and North American universities, this collection advances the southernization and decolonization of this field of knowledge.
