Globalisation week 1

Over the next three weeks we will look at how globalisation has changed crime, and its impact on society across the globe.  This week is about gaining an understanding for globalisation and the opportunities it opened up to criminal organisations.

Please bring your notes, and your 21 mark answers to class with you.

Ethnicity and Crime - Victimisation

Nice short video to finish up the ethnicity topic.  This week we look at racial incidents, and how some ethnic groups are more likely than others to be victims.  This ties up everything we have done over the last four weeks or so.

Ethnicity and Crime - Social constructed view

Following on from last week and looking at how differences in ethnic crime rates may be due to structural differences in society, this week we are looking at the social construct argument.  Are these differences due to labelling, racism, policing and the courts?

Please make notes (I would like us all to try Cornell method again as I feel not enough people are summarising their notes after each session and Cornell allows us to do this as part of the process) and bring along with your file to the lesson.

At the bottom of this page are links to documents and materials you may find useful with regards to the Stephen Lawrence case which I want you to read and understand in preparation for the lesson.
