SUMMARY:Narrative Criminology: A Third Way With Stories
DESCRIPTION:Guest speaker : Lois Presser 
Lois Presser is Professor of Soc
 iology at the University of Tennessee.  She holds a Ph.D. in Criminal Jus
 tice/Criminology (University of Cincinnati) an MBA (Yale University)\, and
  a BS in Human Development and Family Studies (Cornell University).  Guid
 ed by critical criminology\, feminist theory\, cultural sociology\, and so
 cial constructionism\, she has published extensively in the areas of narra
 tive\, harm\, identity\, and restorative justice. 
Summary
Narrative crim
 inology is a theoretical perspective that highlights the influence of stor
 ies on harmful actions and patterns of action.  It directs researchers to
  plumb stories for the effect they have on harm\, rather than for the info
 rmation they might contain.  In contrast\, criminologists have tended to 
 approach the stories offenders tell as either suspect – they are trying 
 to manipulate – or as offering uniquely authentic accounts of marginaliz
 ed experience.  The narrative criminology position is different: it effec
 tively brackets the accuracy of stories.  A burgeoning international fiel
 d has evolved from this perspective.  The paper traces the conceptual dev
 elopment of narrative criminology\, describes research in narrative crimin
 ology to date\, and outlines productive and critical areas of future inqui
 ry.  Narrative criminology points to narratives as unusually consequentia
 l mechanisms for signifying the world and everything in it.
