Suspect Subjects: Affects Of Bodily Regulation, Kathryn Henne, Emily I. Troshynski Sep 2013

Suspect Subjects: Affects Of Bodily Regulation, Kathryn Henne, Emily I. Troshynski

Criminal Justice Faculty Research

There is a growing body of academic literature that scrutinises the effects of technologies deployed to surveil the physical bodies of citizens. This paper considers the role of affect; that is, the visceral and emotive forces underpinning conscious forms of knowing that can drive one’s thoughts, feelings and movements. Drawing from research on two distinctly different groups of surveilled subjects – paroled sex offenders and elite athletes – it examines the effects of biosurveillance in their lives and how their reflections reveal unique insight into how subjectivity, citizenship, harm and deviance become constructed in intimate and public ways vis-à-vis technologies …

An Exploration Of Language Used In Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking, Margot K. Goodnow Sep 2013

An Exploration Of Language Used In Domestic Minor Sex Trafficking, Margot K. Goodnow

Theses, Dissertations, and Projects

This theoretical investigation explored the effect of pejorative labels on victims of domestic minor sex trafficking. Presently, children involved in domestic minor sex trafficking are perceived either as "victims" in need of services, or as "criminals," juvenile prostitutes, deserving punitive action. Due to the age and compounded vulnerability of this population, understanding the negative effect this can have on victims' identity development is crucial to providing appropriate and deserved treatment. This study utilized relational-cultural theory and trauma-focused cognitive behavioral theory to understand the impact of the criminalization of complex trauma and to provide a framework for clinical interventions with this …
