Abstract
This introduction establishes the problem that the special issue addresses: punishment in
global peripheries. Then, it justifies why analysing it is a timely task to examine such mat-
ters in the broader context of the growing debate on southernizing and decolonizing
criminology, and more particularly, in punishment and society studies. Finally, the con-
tents of the various articles comprised by this special issue and some of their common
elements are briefly described.
Keywords
Colonialism, dependency, detention, global peripheries, imperialism, penality, prison, punishment,
punishment and society, southern criminology
This special issue brings together research from different regions of the world: Latin
America, the Middle East and Asia (Central, Southeast and East). Contributors deal
with the field of penality, broadly defined, in peripheral contexts, connecting them to
debates on the global level. Their articles interrogate this common element in different
ways yet represent an unprecedented collective effort in punishment and society studies.
