We are pleased to announce that we will be working with SAGE who celebrate their 45th anniversary in 2010, to add a new stream to the conference programme - The Policy Value of Criminology. As part of their 45th anniversary celebrations SAGE are keen to promote and champion the impact and value that social science research makes on society. Authors are invited to submit abstracts under this stream that discuss the value of criminology and the social sciences and the public understanding of it.
