Research on right-wing groups is increasingly security-oriented. I identify problems with this in my new article "Thinking Beyond #Extremism: A Critique of #Counterterrorism Research on Right-Wing Nationalist & Far-Right Social Movements", in @BritSocCrim.

What a great event celebrating Michael Tonry and his incredible career and mentorship. Forever grateful!! Thank you to @AleGCorda#JulianRoberts and @MPICSL for this outstanding event and the invitation.
...What a day @MPICSL in beautiful Freiburg im Breisgau for the event celebrating Michael Tonry's incredible career, mentorship and contribution to criminology and criminal justice!
@stevens82988 wrote the initial draft of this paper in 2022 as her final project in my 4th year @MacEwanU course. A year and a bit later, here it is: https://t.co/ATJR3ChVIh
@SJacques83@HeCopes @VolkanTopalli How about speaking after the weekend on zoom? But re your questions 1) we need to balance "openness" with protecting vulnerable, "justice" -involved participants. That's the type of research/concerns we are addressing. 2) see point 1.
@SJacques83@HeCopes @VolkanTopalli ...this would pose issues around Indigenous sovereignty and Truth and Reconciliation efforts. Again, solutions can be to make coding trees available (not entire interview scripts/fieldnotes). OA is important but cannot supersede protecting participants! Hope this calrifies (3/3)
@SJacques83@HeCopes @VolkanTopalli to protect participants who are marginalized/criminally involved etc. We tried to offer solutions at the end of the piece and have also consulted NIJ on the topic. We also see issues around making ALL data available when it comes to Indigenous groups, for example. In Canada (2/3)
@SJacques83@HeCopes @VolkanTopalli Thanks for the clarification. We did not mean to say that papers should not be open access (in fact, I try to make mine OA).

A little late to the party but thanks to @dpyrooz @JohnLeverso & James Densley for including this chapter with @SBucerius in their new Oxford Handbook of Gangs & Society - a hefty but important book @CCR_UofA
I hope this gets the conversation started about the practical and ethical issues with making transcripts and other qualitative data public. The editors of Criminology @VolkanTopalli seem open to discuss. Would live to hear other people's thoughts on it. #Criminology#qualcrim
Pleased that The Criminologist published @HeCopes & my article on the "Transparency trade-off: the risks of Criminology’s new data sharing policy". As board members of #Criminology we felt it was important to discuss possible implications for qualitative researchers &participants
The current issue of The Criminologist has been published and is available for you to view online.

Excited that @SBucerius, @kevindhaggerty and I's latest article is now live! We discuss how incarcerated men in a specialized prison program use their participation to create symbolic social boundaries between their current and former selves. (1/2)
