Reality and Myth: Social Disorder and the Other 26th February 2010
Organised by the Crime and Conflict Research Centre
The Barn, Middlesex University, Hendon Campus, London, UK
"Social disorder is constructed in particular ways around certain groups,
and widely used to serve certain particular interests. It may contribute to
mobilising despair as a political weapon rather than demands for justice.
Appropriated by powerful groups, and turned into fear, it reflects, reshapes
and reinforces the status quo."
From Social Disorder and the Criminalisation of Indolence by Vincenzo
Ruggiero, to be published in City, volume 14, issues 1-2, March 2010
