- Cavalcanti’s single-authored monograph makes a significant contribution to the emerging field of southern criminology by examining public experiences of insecurity and the social impacts of security programmes designed to address violence in Brazil. It meets the criteria for double-weighting as a longer-form output that reflects a sustained research effort; in presenting critical analysis of violence and control in urban and postcolonial contexts stemming from a complex and extended piece of ethnographic data collection; and in the investigation of social injustices existing in the Global South in substantial depth and from multiple perspectives in criminology, sociology, cultural studies and social theory.
