Updates

It has been a while since I updated this page. Since my last posting I have moved to the DC area to run a social science research and development program for the Federal government. I also completed my PhD in sociology (“Bodies of Force: The Social Organization of Force, Suffering, and Honor in the Police Academy”). I am expecting to publish several of my chapters in the coming year as well as to partner up with a colleague to write a new paper on the sociology of “targeting” and “threat perception.”

My trip to Sweden for the International Sociological Association, where I presented two papers on policing,  was also a success.
