policing, technology and power: transnational approaches to abolition
Location: SG2, Alison Richard Building, West Road, Cambridge, UK
The panel will trace how carceral technologies and practices refracted between the UK, India, and around the world. It will examine possibilities for transnational solidarity and collaboration, theorising what abolitionist movements in the UK and India can learn from one another and from abolitionist organising in other parts of the world, and how they can support one another in their fight against carceral capitalism and state surveillance.
