CiCS Crime Talks
The Police Sketch and the Socialization of Policing: On the Genealogy of Public Suspicion
Lecture by PD Dr. Georgiana Banita
The lecture contrasts Habermas’s concept of the public sphere—as a forum for reason-based argument and the discursive establishment of legitimacy—with an Anglo-American genealogy of the “public sphere of suspicion.”
