Join us online for a discussion of enironmental victimsation and visual and sensory methodology.
Speaker's Abstract
In this webinar, I share a visual and sensory methodology useful to the study of environmental victimization from the perspective of people exposed to environmental harm and crime. First, I focus on the methodological and theoretical positioning that sees the encounter between green, cultural, visual, narrative and critical criminologies. Second, I discuss photo elicitation and the importance of sensory techniques for a green criminology open to the complex and situational dimension of environmental harm, with some examples involving a special form of mobile methodology called itinerant soliloquy. The conclusion notes the potential of a visual and sensory mode of research to social and environmental harms.
