Today\, practices such as fi nes\, fees\, forfeitures\, prison charges\, and bail premiums transfer bil lions of dollars from race-class subjugated communities to governments and corporations. Based on collaborative research with Joshua Page\, Joe Soss will discuss the origins\, operations\, and consequences of this developm ent. Criminal legal governance in the U.S. today operates as a regime of l egal plunder\, organized by the intersections of race\, class\, and gender . To understand it\, one must locate it in the longer histories of racial capitalism\, predatory uses of the state\, and political resistance.\n DTSTART:20231016T190000Z DTEND:20231016T210000Z LOCATION:Room 160\, Arts Building\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0G5\, 853 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Joe Soss (University of Minnesota): 'Legal Plunder: the Predatory D imensions of Criminal Justice' URL:/politicalscience/channels/event/joe-soss-universi ty-minnesota-legal-plunder-predatory-dimensions-criminal-justice-351363 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
