About this listen
In this episode of LawPod, hosts Alessandro Corda and Teresa Degenhardt interview Professor Máximo Sozzo, a distinguished academic in criminology from The National University of the Littoral in Argentina.
Professor Sozzo discusses his educational background, influences, and extensive work in the fields of sociology of punishment and prison studies.
The conversation explores Argentina's political and penal history, the rise of punitive measures in Latin America, the need for decolonising criminology, and the challenges faced by academia in Argentina.
Sozzo also shares insights on his ongoing research projects, including a comprehensive study on Argentina's penal metamorphosis and a comparative project on prison transparency. Join us for an in-depth discussion on the nuances of criminology, both locally and globally.
Prof Sozzo gave the Queen's University Institute of Criminology and Criminal Justice Annual Lecture 2025 - you can view the lecture here:
