Prisons, Prisoners and Prison Records in Historical Perspective
The rise of the prison as an institution of mass incarceration for offenders has for long fascinated researchers. In part, this is due to the unusually detailed nature of most prison records. The wide availability of somewhat similar sources across diverse European and European-derived societies provides criminologists, social and economic historians, demographers and other social scientists with rich collections of personal information that have been analysed intensively since the 1970s. The increasing power of software and hardware and the accumulation of very large quantities of prison data, some of it linked to other sources, offers challenges and opportunities for researchers today. The workshop responds to the challenge of harnessing criminal justice records by bringing together scholars in different disciplines and countries to share information about their sources, methodologies of classification and analysis, and to reconceptualize research paradigms.

Louvain-la-Neuve
Les historiens du genre et de la sexualité savent combien la question du corps compte dans leur discipline. Mais dans quelle mesure ? Comment la chair peut-elle s’incarner dans l’écriture de l’histoire ? Assiste-t-on actuellement au retour d’une approche essentialiste, anhistorique, naturaliste dans le champ de l’histoire du genre ? Nous aborderons ces questions au cours de trois master-classes et d’une journée d’études organisées en Belgique (automne 2011 - printemps 2012). -
