- Abstract
In recent years there has been a great deal of interest in the question of how social scientists in general, and criminologists in particular, should communicate with the public. Discussion has been raised about criminology's public status and its relationship to public policy, which is exemplified by recent debate on the need for a «public criminology». In this article we describe and critically examine four different ways of «going public» in criminology by focusing on the intellectual life-course of four key-thinkers in the recent sociology of punishment, that is, David Garland, John Pratt, Hans Boutellier and Loïc Wacquant.
