Department: Ctr of Criminology
Campus: St. George (Downtown Toronto)Description:Course Number and Title: CRI494H1 – Advanced Topics in Criminology and Sociolegal Studies (Topics: Senses of Justice)Course description: This is a fourth year-level seminar that focuses on the senses of justice. The world today is characterized by enormous forms of political, social, economic, and other kinds of violence committed in conflict and peace times. In the aftermath of such violence, survivors grapple with the consequences of such harm that impact on their lives for a long time. Society must put in place systems, mechanisms, and processes to deliver justice and reduce the impact of violence on survivors, their families, and communities. In this course we will unpack the meanings of justice from the lens of people who survive violence. In particular, the course delves into understanding survivor’s senses of justice after conflict-related violence. Justice is understood in this course as something that is pluralistic and conceptualized by survivors as relational, holistic, and lived in the everyday. This sense of justice is called ‘lived justice.’ Justice as lived emanates from an in-depth study of women who survived wartime sexual violence in northern Uganda. Using this research as a foundation, the course has three parts. Part 1 provides background and experiences of human rights violations in various around the world. Part 2 introduces learners to emblematic notions and mechanisms of justice (transitional, restorative, traditional & transformative). Part 3 discusses the senses of justice as articulated by survivors in northern Uganda alongside specific case studies from other parts of the world. This will include place-based, relationship-based, needs-based, and compensation-based senses of justice.Estimated course enrolment: 30Estimated TA support: noneClass Schedule: FR:13:00-15:00 (In-Person)Sessional dates: Jan. 1, 2025 – April 30, 2025Salary:
