Omschrijving
Milne provides a comprehensive analysis of conviction outcomes through court transcripts of 14 criminal cases in England and Wales during 2010 to 2019. Drawing on feminist theories of responsibilisation and 'gendered harm', she critically reflects on the gendered nature of criminal justice's responses to suspected infanticide.
"[Milne's] book is a skilful, multidisciplinary approach to a difficult topic which draws on sociology, law, feminist theory and history. It is situated within a much broader and timely discussion on women's reproductive rights."
Dr Emma Milne is Assistant Professor in Criminal Law and Criminal Justice at Durham University. Her PhD in Sociology from the University of Essex was funded by the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Emma's research is interdisciplinary, focusing on criminal law and criminal justice responses to newborn child killing and foetal harm. The wider context of Emma's work is social controls and regulations of all women, notably in relation to pregnancy, sex and reproduction. Emma co-authored Sex and Crime (SAGE, 2020), and co-edited Women and the Criminal Justice System: Failing Victims and Offenders? (Palgrave, 2018).
