ETHN 321: Policing, Incarceration, Abolition
Even as crimes rate continue to decline, policing and incarceration have been on the rise in the US over the past few decades. This course will analyze the history and practice of racially targeted policing and criminalization, with interdisciplinary critical perspectives on policing and imprisonment, as well as proposals for reform and abolition. It will highlight the role of grassroots social movements in exposing the systems of criminalization that disproportionately impact their communities, and in developing alternatives to incarceration.
