Research Interests | My main research interests centre upon the confluence of religious and ethnic identities, victimisation and criminal justice, specifically within prison contexts. I also have interests in broader criminological theory- Critical Realism, Islamic Critical Realism, Comparative Criminology, Zemiology & Social Harm. |
