Criminal Imaginaries: Transnational Capital and Moral Economies
Description:
The notion of criminality calls to mind the state apparatuses required to
control or eradicate such activities and the felons who perpetuate them.
As such, discussions of the criminal figure imbricate discourses of the
nation and its institutions. This seminar will look at who or what the
nation-state criminalizes, and the relations of "criminals" to
transnational capital.
