Justice Quarterly invites submissions for a special issue, Criminology, Criminal Justice, and Public Health
Studies, guest edited by Travis C. Pratt.
While there is a burgeoning field of research which studies violence and crime as a health outcome, little of that work originates from criminology and criminal justice. The goal of this special issue is to begin the discussion of health-related outcomes from within criminology and to ultimately build public health-criminology collaborations. Both quantitative and qualitative approaches are appropriate. Theoretical and analytical papers are appropriate and welcomed as well.
The submissions deadline is Dec. 31, 2011. mw

- Value of Variety, June 25, 2012, “will explore the benefits of variety in all aspects of teaching and learning, including variety in terms of learning objectives, materials, teaching methods, and assessment.” “A call for workshop proposals will appear in the Fall 2011 issue of The Law Teacher.”

What aspects of ourselves are the most supported and engaged by the work we do?”
