This is a journal of notes, quotations, ideas, brief reflections and occasional short essays. They will not necessarily be systematic or entirely coherent. Constructive comments are always welcome. I retired July 2011 as a full-time academic in the School of Sociology and Social Policy at the University of Leeds but have been re-engaged for two years to teach a couple of specialist courses and complete Ph.D. supervisions.
This is my personal blog but maintain two other blogs that support my remaining teaching.
Environment: reports & resources This is a blog that supports a course I teach SLSP2931 The Sociology of the Environment. Post are mainly to relevant media reports and sites.
Discipline and Punish: a sociology of prison This blog supports a course I teach SLSP3910 Dsicipline and Punish. Post are mainly brief commentaries and links to relevant media reports and sites.
