Programme overview

What are the attractions in dealing drugs, being a graffiti writer, or trying to rehabilitate criminals? Cultural criminology aims to explain and understand how people involved in deviance, crime or social control go about their everyday life and how they interact with others.

Instead of focusing on statistics such as increases in crime or correlations of numbers, which criminology often has relied upon, we ask what governs relationships in the drug world or that of prostitution, among buyers, sellers and the police. We aim to get inside the experiences of committing or controlling crime and to grasp the biographical and emotional aspects.

If you are a graffiti writer, what are the thrills? What tools are you expected to use, what vocabulary and even what clothes are you expected to wear? Investigating corruption, we find important cultural themes governing both those involved in corruption and the anti-corruption movement. Actors navigate between different conceptions of what is considered a gift and a bribe, linked to differences between countries but also between professions and historical periods.

We are interested in how media represents crime but also in personal experiences and detailed accounts of life inside institutions. We primarily use field notes, interviews, texts, images and Internet data.

In short, cultural criminology is about local cultures, subcultures and a multitude of cultural characteristics associated with crime or deviance.
