Workshop - Professionals at the sharp end of criminal justice: The price of McDonaldization
Location: Hybrid
A workshop supported by the Institute of Advanced Study Fernandes Fellowship. With Jackie Hodgson, School of Law, University of Warwick UK and Mojca Plesnicar, Institute of Criminology, Ljubljana, Slovenia.
The workshop will revolve around two key questions:
- How has the metamorphosis of criminal justice affected the idea of professionalism in criminal justice? What has happened with professionals’ discretion and their autonomy? How has the role of judge, prosecutor and defence lawyer changed?
- How have the changes affected professionals and their well-being? Is there greater emotional labour involved in this new reality of emphasised productivity and changing expectations, changes in working routines and habits, the increased public and media attention and scrutiny? How do professionals cope?
