PhD Supervision Interests
I am very interested to hear from potential applicants for PhD projects on 'hate crime'; antisemitism; 'race', racism, crime and justice; crime and human rights; equality of opportunity and workplace diversity. I am happy to talk through informally ideas for projects and support applicants through the application process at Lancaster University. I served on the Board of Examiners for Sociology for the Economic and Social Research Council's annual studentship competitions in 2005, 2006 and 2007.
Profile
Current PhD students
Abe Sweiry. Contemporary antisemitism in Britain.
"My research study is investigating antisemitic incidents and prejudice as experienced by Jews from across the communal, political and social spectrum. Based on in-depth interviews, I am examining the nature, impact and consequences of participants' personal experiences and their more general perceptions of antisemitism in wider society. The ideas and notions about Jews in contemporary Britain that may be reflected by the content, context and discourse identified and associated with individual experiences are being explored."
Current Teaching
I teach the undergraduate courses Understanding Research and Hate Crime, Human Rights and the State for the BA Criminology programme and provide lectures on hate crime for the first year undergraduate course Crime and Social Life. I also teach a Masters-level course - Methodological Fundamentals of Criminological Research - on the MRes Criminology.
I joined Lancaster University in September 2007 after seven years in the sociology department at the University of Essex where I taught research methodology and methods at undergraduate and postgraduate levels and convened the MA Criminological Research. I also taught across a number of criminology courses with a particular input on crime and human rights and cultural criminology. I served as external examiner for the MSc Social Research at South Bank University 1999-2002, and for the MA Social Research at London Metropolitan University 2001-2005.
