Programme

The course aims to provide useful tools to understand the phenomenon of deviance, crime and punishment in Western societies through the most important theories of international and Italian legal-criminal sociology, as well as the relationship between law and Gender studies.
In the first module, we will work on the Liberal School of Criminal law, on the ideology of social defence, on psychoanalytic theories of crime, on deviance and regulatory voids, on the "labelling approach", on the sociology of conflicts in reference to the criminal phenomena, the political corruption and the crime of the "white collars", on the prison and the social marginality, on the prospect of the school of Critical criminology.
The second module will offer more specific tools, i.e. the analysis of the symbolic, cultural and legal function of the contribution of feminist studies in relation to law, deviance and power. In particular, the relationship between the Thought of Sexual Difference and the doctrine of Juridical Experience will be investigated, both at a theoretical level and in the practices carried out in trials, as well as the concept of “Juridical Feminism” applied to the main themes of the present time: equality/difference; citizenship/borders; criminology/delinquency/security; justice/law/rights; gender/sexuality/reproduction; victim/victimology/vulnerability.
