The media are saturated with images of crime, victimisation and the criminal justice system (police, courts, prisons). This subject focuses on critically analysing those representations and how the media reflect, filter and/or distort those social phenomena, as well as the influence they may have on the social perception of crime and the functioning of the criminal justice system, people’s behaviour and criminal policy. In the course of the academic year, we will discuss the following topics: the police in fiction and documentaries; drugs, moral panic and TV fiction; prison in fiction and infotainment; media construction of ideal victims; juries, courts and TV fiction; public opinion and social media.

This subject focuses on the analysis and critical discussion of current problems in the field of crime and the criminal justice system (police, judicial system, prison system). These issues include gender-based violence, the criminality of the powerful in both the public and private spheres, environmental crime, human trafficking and problems related to illegal drugs. In relation to the problems identified, official data will be compared with that obtained from criminological research, and developments in criminal policy will be discussed, both in legislative and institutional terms. Ultimately, the subject seeks to delve deeper into specific issues from a criminological perspective, analysing existing data (official and research) and the responses that generate formal and informal social responses it generates.
