Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies
The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies is housed in the Criminal Justice Department at the University of Winnipeg.
The Centre was founded in 2007 with the mandate of encouraging dialogue between various disciplines in the study of justice. The impetus for the Centre stems from the disciplinary tensions that emerged as the department attempted to create a “foundations based” curriculum for its criminal justice program.
While the CIJS is interested in fostering sociological and criminological approaches to justice, it is also interested in encouraging dialogue with legal, political, philosophical, historical, linguistic, instrumental and international approaches to justice studies. The CIJS is also interested in developing pedagogies of justice studies.
To nurture this dialogue the CIJS endeavours to hold regular conferences and roundtable proceedings. This inauguration began with the conference entitled: Theorizing Justice: Interdisciplining the Divide hosted at the University of Winnipeg between April 23-25, 2009, and has continued each year since.

The rewarding, enjoyable aspect of academic inquiry is testing how far these analytical ideas can be pushed and explored. As part of our annual justice conference, we invited academic contributions as well as photographic and artistic exposures of the following approaches to justice and visibility including but not limited to: social justice; ecological justice; indigenous justice; urban justice; human rights and justice; works on surveillance; the role of sight in criminal justice; media representations of law; order and justice more broadly; the use of visual methods in the justice disciplines; and the visuality of forensics. As the reader will see in what follows, the contributors have been comprehensive and meticulous in their examination of these topics.

Placing Justice: Critical Perspectives on Space, Justice, Law, and Order
Date: May 9-11, 2016
Location: Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS), University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS) in conjunction with the Department of Criminal Justice and the Justice Research Institute (JRI) at the University of Winnipeg, as well as the organizing committee for the annual Critical Perspectives: Criminology and Social Justice conference (from Carleton University and the University of Ottawa) invite abstract submissions, panel proposals, and exhibition proposals for a jointly organized justice conference May 9 to 11, 2016 to be held at the downtown campus of The University of Winnipeg. The theme of the 2016 conference will be justice, place, and space. We invite proposals that specifically interrogate the conference theme, as well as works that engage more generally with the critical study of crime, law, and social justice.
Theme: “Placing Justice”: The theme “Placing Justice” builds on the momentum established in 2009 when the CIJS hosted its inaugural “Theorizing Justice” national conference. Our first conference was followed by “Practicing Justice” in 2010, “Questioning Justice” in 2011, “Securing Justice” in 2012, and “Educating Justice” in 2014. In 2015, the CIJS took up the topic of “Visualizing Justice”. This year we are staging a joint event with organizers of the Critical Perspectives: Criminology and Social Justice conference, which has met annually since 2011 at either the University of Ottawa or Carleton University.
Place and space are foundational concepts across the humanities and social sciences. Ideas about justice shape and are shaped by place and space. Our definitions of justice, place, and space are broad and inclusive. We invite submissions representing historical, geographic, legal, cultural, feminist, philosophical, criminological, and artistic takes on justice, place, and space; reflections, research, and exhibitions on justice, place, and space; area-based approaches to justice and space including, but not limited to, social justice, ecological justice, urban justice, decolonization, and human rights; religion, place, and cities; proxemics and justice; spatial explorations of crime and fear of crime; material and virtual spaces of justice; zones of exclusion; as well as cartographic and photographic exposures of these topics. We also invite works on cities and urbanization, rural criminology, the role of location and geography in criminal justice, crime prevention through environmental design, and the use of spatial methods in the justice disciplines. We welcome submissions from scholars of all disciplinary backgrounds, and from students, community organizations, justice professionals, artists, activists and anyone who wishes to partake in an intellectual engagement with justice, place, and space.
Proposals: In addition to individual papers or presentations, we invite proposals for complete sessions. The program committee welcomes innovative program themes and presentations including discussions, films, artistic exhibits, roundtables, and pre-circulated papers. Our desire is to create a site for academic, artistic, and professional encounters. We also welcome proposals to make use of the various spaces and places where justice and injustice manifest. The University of Winnipeg is located within walking distance of most of the province’s key arts, cultural, and justice institutions. Creative proposals that make use of alternative spaces beyond the institution are keenly encouraged.
Last but not least, we invite general submissions dealing with topics in criminology, criminal justice, urban studies, legal studies and social justice that do not necessarily engage directly the theme of the conference. Graduate students and scholars are welcome to propose papers and panels in these general fields of study as well.
Location and Accommodations: The conference will be held at the main campus of the University of Winnipeg in downtown Winnipeg. The Downtown Winnipeg Holiday Inn (360 Colony Street) is located only steps from campus. Information on the University of Winnipeg and the hotel may be found at the following links:
www.uwinnipeg.ca http://www.hiwinnipegdowntown.com/
Submission Procedures: Proposals for complete panels and thematic sessions must be submitted electronically no later than January 30, 2016. Proposals for individual paper presentations will be accepted on a rolling basis until March 30, 2016. Email us or contact us using the form below.
Proposals must include: a complete mailing address, email, phone number, and affiliation for each participant, an abstract of not more than 500 words for sessions, and an abstract of not more than 250 words for individual paper presentations. We hope to see you May 9 to 11, 2016!
A special issue of the Annual Review of Interdisciplinary Justice Research will publish selected papers submitted for peer-review in late 2016.
We wish to thank our sponsors: the Justice Research Institute; the University of Winnipeg AVP Research and Innovation Office; University of Winnipeg Departments of History, Urban and Inner City Studies, Religion and Culture, Women’s & Gender Studies, Sociology, Geography; and the University of Winnipeg Criminal Justice Students’ Association.
Date: May 7-9, 2015
Location: Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS), University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Call for Participation: The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS) in conjunction with the Department of Criminal Justice at the University of Winnipeg invites abstract submissions, exhibition proposals and other academic, practice-based or creative presentations for our annual justice conference. The 2015 conference will focus on justice and its relations to visuality and visibility.
Visualizing Justice builds on the momentum established in 2009 when the CIJS hosted its inaugural Theorizing Justice conference. This was followed by Practicing Justice in 2010, Questioning Justice in 2011, Securing Justice in 2012, and Educating Justice in 2014. In 2015, the CIJS will continue this interdisciplinary dialogue and focus the conversation on visual aspects of justice in all forms.
Theme: We wish to open the focus up to multiple views on justice, visuality, and visibility. Visuality and visibility are two of the most significant concepts of the last decade across the humanities and social sciences. Our definitions of justice, visuality, and visibility are broad and inclusive. We welcome paper submission, posters, multi-media presentations, reflections, research, exhibitions and performances on justice, visuality, and visibility. We seek academic contributions as well as photographic and cinematic exposures of the following approaches to justice and visibility including but not limited to: social justice; ecological justice; anarchic justice; indigenous justice; urban justice; human rights and justice; works on surveillance; the role of sight in criminal justice; media representations of law; order and justice more broadly; the use of visual methods in the justice disciplines; the visuality of forensics and justice practice; and any other work that engages the theme.
Disciplines: The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies is housed in the Criminal Justice Department at the University of Winnipeg. We invite submissions from all disciplines and orientations that impact upon justice, visuality, and visibility including submissions from disciplines and inter-disciplines in the arts, social sciences and humanities.
Format: In addition to individual papers or presentations, we invite proposals for complete sessions. The program committee welcomes innovative program themes and presentations including discussions, films, artistic exhibits, roundtables, pre-circulated papers or other presentations and/or displays that fit with the theme. Our desire is to create a site for academic, artistic, and professional encounters.
Location and Accommodations: Educating Justice is held at University of Winnipeg. Accommodation is available just steps away at Holiday Inn Downtown.
Submission Procedures: Proposals for panels and other thematic sessions should be submitted electronically no later than January 30, 2015. Individual paper submissions will be accepted up to March 30, 2015 on a rolling basis. Click here to submit a proposal.
Proposals must include: 1) A complete mailing address, email, phone number, and affiliation (if applicable) for each participant; 2) An abstract of not more than 500 words for sessions and/or an abstract of not more than 250 words for individual paper presentations
Securing Justice brings together academics in law, criminology, international studies, sociology, criminal justice, politics and related disciplines, who have a critical and scholarly interest in problematizing security and the securitized society post 9/11. “Securing Justice” will provide a forum to reflect on the broad social, legal, ideological and cultural shifts that have occurred in the decade following 9/11.

Location: Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS), University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS) in conjunction with the Department of Criminal Justice and the Justice Research Institute (JRI) at the University of Winnipeg, as well as the organizing committee for the annual Critical Perspectives: Criminology and Social Justice conference (from Carleton University and the University of Ottawa) invite abstract submissions, panel proposals, and exhibition proposals for a jointly organized justice conference May 9 to 11, 2016 to be held at the downtown campus of The University of Winnipeg. The theme of the 2016 conference will be justice, place, and space. We invite proposals that specifically interrogate the conference theme, as well as works that engage more generally with the critical study of crime, law, and social justice.
Theme: “Placing Justice”: The theme “Placing Justice” builds on the momentum established in 2009 when the CIJS hosted its inaugural “Theorizing Justice” national conference. Our first conference was followed by “Practicing Justice” in 2010, “Questioning Justice” in 2011, “Securing Justice” in 2012, and “Educating Justice” in 2014. In 2015, the CIJS took up the topic of “Visualizing Justice”. This year we are staging a joint event with organizers of the Critical Perspectives: Criminology and Social Justice conference, which has met annually since 2011 at either the University of Ottawa or Carleton University.
Place and space are foundational concepts across the humanities and social sciences. Ideas about justice shape and are shaped by place and space. Our definitions of justice, place, and space are broad and inclusive. We invite submissions representing historical, geographic, legal, cultural, feminist, philosophical, criminological, and artistic takes on justice, place, and space; reflections, research, and exhibitions on justice, place, and space; area-based approaches to justice and space including, but not limited to, social justice, ecological justice, urban justice, decolonization, and human rights; religion, place, and cities; proxemics and justice; spatial explorations of crime and fear of crime; material and virtual spaces of justice; zones of exclusion; as well as cartographic and photographic exposures of these topics. We also invite works on cities and urbanization, rural criminology, the role of location and geography in criminal justice, crime prevention through environmental design, and the use of spatial methods in the justice disciplines. We welcome submissions from scholars of all disciplinary backgrounds, and from students, community organizations, justice professionals, artists, activists and anyone who wishes to partake in an intellectual engagement with justice, place, and space.
Proposals: In addition to individual papers or presentations, we invite proposals for complete sessions. The program committee welcomes innovative program themes and presentations including discussions, films, artistic exhibits, roundtables, and pre-circulated papers. Our desire is to create a site for academic, artistic, and professional encounters. We also welcome proposals to make use of the various spaces and places where justice and injustice manifest. The University of Winnipeg is located within walking distance of most of the province’s key arts, cultural, and justice institutions. Creative proposals that make use of alternative spaces beyond the institution are keenly encouraged.
Last but not least, we invite general submissions dealing with topics in criminology, criminal justice, urban studies, legal studies and social justice that do not necessarily engage directly the theme of the conference. Graduate students and scholars are welcome to propose papers and panels in these general fields of study as well.
Location and Accommodations: The conference will be held at the main campus of the University of Winnipeg in downtown Winnipeg. The Downtown Winnipeg Holiday Inn (360 Colony Street) is located only steps from campus. Information on the University of Winnipeg and the hotel may be found at the following links:
www.uwinnipeg.ca http://www.hiwinnipegdowntown.com/
Submission Procedures: Proposals for complete panels and thematic sessions must be submitted electronically no later than January 30, 2016. Proposals for individual paper presentations will be accepted on a rolling basis until March 30, 2016. Email us or contact us using the form below.
Proposals must include: a complete mailing address, email, phone number, and affiliation for each participant, an abstract of not more than 500 words for sessions, and an abstract of not more than 250 words for individual paper presentations. We hope to see you May 9 to 11, 2016!
A special issue of the Annual Review of Interdisciplinary Justice Research will publish selected papers submitted for peer-review in late 2016.
We wish to thank our sponsors: the Justice Research Institute; the University of Winnipeg AVP Research and Innovation Office; University of Winnipeg Departments of History, Urban and Inner City Studies, Religion and Culture, Women’s & Gender Studies, Sociology, Geography; and the University of Winnipeg Criminal Justice Students’ Association.
Date: May 7-9, 2015
Location: Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS), University of Winnipeg, Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada
Call for Participation: The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies (CIJS) in conjunction with the Department of Criminal Justice at the University of Winnipeg invites abstract submissions, exhibition proposals and other academic, practice-based or creative presentations for our annual justice conference. The 2015 conference will focus on justice and its relations to visuality and visibility.
Visualizing Justice builds on the momentum established in 2009 when the CIJS hosted its inaugural Theorizing Justice conference. This was followed by Practicing Justice in 2010, Questioning Justice in 2011, Securing Justice in 2012, and Educating Justice in 2014. In 2015, the CIJS will continue this interdisciplinary dialogue and focus the conversation on visual aspects of justice in all forms.
Theme: We wish to open the focus up to multiple views on justice, visuality, and visibility. Visuality and visibility are two of the most significant concepts of the last decade across the humanities and social sciences. Our definitions of justice, visuality, and visibility are broad and inclusive. We welcome paper submission, posters, multi-media presentations, reflections, research, exhibitions and performances on justice, visuality, and visibility. We seek academic contributions as well as photographic and cinematic exposures of the following approaches to justice and visibility including but not limited to: social justice; ecological justice; anarchic justice; indigenous justice; urban justice; human rights and justice; works on surveillance; the role of sight in criminal justice; media representations of law; order and justice more broadly; the use of visual methods in the justice disciplines; the visuality of forensics and justice practice; and any other work that engages the theme.
Disciplines: The Centre for Interdisciplinary Justice Studies is housed in the Criminal Justice Department at the University of Winnipeg. We invite submissions from all disciplines and orientations that impact upon justice, visuality, and visibility including submissions from disciplines and inter-disciplines in the arts, social sciences and humanities.
Format: In addition to individual papers or presentations, we invite proposals for complete sessions. The program committee welcomes innovative program themes and presentations including discussions, films, artistic exhibits, roundtables, pre-circulated papers or other presentations and/or displays that fit with the theme. Our desire is to create a site for academic, artistic, and professional encounters.
Location and Accommodations: Educating Justice is held at University of Winnipeg. Accommodation is available just steps away at Holiday Inn Downtown.
Submission Procedures: Proposals for panels and other thematic sessions should be submitted electronically no later than January 30, 2015. Individual paper submissions will be accepted up to March 30, 2015 on a rolling basis. Click here to submit a proposal.
