Curr. 2021 § 5 (1) 15:

The term "security society" depicts recent transformation in social control from a welfare model of crime control to governance of risk management. In this lecture we learn about different paradigms in criminology (rationalism, positivism, constructivism) and respective crime prevention policies. In workshops we will discuss specific mechanisms of surveillance, commodification, 'nudging', crime opportunity structures, policing, etc.

Lecture and seminar

Written examination, short individual papers, and  "conference-panels" in working groups
