  Inaugural Issue

  Vol. 1 No. 1 (2025)

  This inaugural issue demonstrates the journal's commitment to deconstructing and reimagining criminology by featuring articles that challenge dominant narratives and amplify marginalised perspectives. It demonstrates the journal's commitment to showcasing international scholarship and providing access to publishing for early career researchers. The articles presented here are wide-ranging in topic and method and highlight the creativity of current criminologists. The Good Guest explores the lived experiences of women prisoners in the UK through their own writings; Homicide with Post-Mortem Dismemberment examines Italian forensic case studies; and The Pink Line critically analyses the impact of anti-homosexuality laws in Uganda. This inaugural issue offers fresh insights into power dynamics and systemic inequalities in global criminal justice contexts.

  Voices from the margins

  Vol. 1 No. 2 (2025)

  We are proud to deliver issue two - Voices from the Margins for(De)Constructing Criminology: International Perspectives.  These four articles tackle an array of complex issues that are not mainstream. These publications deconstruct and reimagine criminology and are explorations that demand our attention. Crossing Vulnerability explores the lived experiences of young people who experience structural, psychological, and physical violence as they cross borders; Reintegration of Sexual and Violent Offenders includes practitioners’ voices about what hinders and aids rehabilitation and reintegration of sexual and violent offenders; It’s Just Men Taking an Interest provokes us to consider how women often unknowingly adapt their lives through unrecognised elements of coercive control; and HIV Non-Disclosure reveals how despite advancements in medicine and law, criminalisation continues and disproportionately impacts the marginalised.
