RACE/ETHNICITY, CRIME, AND CRIMINAL JUSTICE:DIVERSE RESEARCH AND PARTICIPATION IN THE ACADEMYABSTRACTIntellectual Merit. This project builds on the successful collaboration of a group of scholars fromdiverse backgrounds (African American, Latino, White, etc.), disciplines (Criminology orCriminal Justice, Family Relations, Law, Public Policy, Political Science, Social Work, andSociology), and stages of career (assistant-, associate-, and full-professors, and graduate students)whose work is oriented to improving the quality of research on the interlinkages amongrace/ethnicity, crime, and criminal justice, and on broadening perspectives and participation inresearch on this topic. These scholars recently published a book, The Many Colors of Crime, inwhich they lay out a critical new research agenda (see Peterson, Krivo and Hagan 2006). Thefirst goal of this project is to undertake the kinds of studies called for in the volume, and thereby,begin to provide a deeper, and more nuanced, understanding of the interrelationships amongrace/ethnicity, crime, and criminal justice than heretofore available. The second goal of thisproject is to advance the research and professional development of young scholars fromunderrepresented groups for carrying out innovative research on crime and justice by establishingan annual Summer Research Institute as a follow up to a 2006 pilot institute. The overarchingpurpose of the institute is to support the advancement of ethnoracial minorities engaged in thestudy of crime and justice in order to further democratic inclusion in academe, and advanceknowledge in this area by supporting the potentially diverse perspectives these scholars can offer.Approaches to Achieving Project Goals. To facilitate achieving the project objectives, the PIswill undertake a series of workshops that bring group members together, and hold a summerresearch and professional development institute for young scholars from underrepresentedgroups. The workshops will be both idea- and product-oriented and serve as the mechanism forplanning and making progress on collaborative projects. The summer research institute will takeplace in a "safe" and resource-rich environment and be structured to provide the support, training,and mentorship needed by young faculty for completing a research project for journal publicationor grant proposal. The institute will culminate with participants presenting their work at theRDCJ-N workshop where they will gain feedback and develop networks with other senior andjunior scholars in the field.Broader Impacts. This project is structured to have two important broader impacts on scholarshipand the academy. First, it will draw on the expertise of scholars who are diverse along a numberof dimensions (e.g., race and ethnicity, disciplinary training, and stage of career) to develop andcarry out significant innovative crime and justice research. This work will have as its centralpremise the need to take into account the complexity of race/ethnicity and embed analyses in thedifferential positioning of groups in society. Through collaborative, multi-method, andcomparative studies, the researchers will produce a body of original multidisciplinary work thatemphasizes the variable significance of race for crime/criminal justice, and how racializationrelates to the understanding of citizenship and democracy, nationally and around the world.Second, the project will broaden participation in crime and justice research by fostering thecareers of scholars from underrepresented groups. Together the workshops and summer researchinstitute will have a general impact in bringing diversity in perspectives and participation toresearch and curricula on crime and criminal justice.

种族/民族，犯罪和刑事司法：在学院的不同研究和参与。该项目建立在一组来自不同背景的学者（非洲裔美国人，拉丁美洲人，白色等）的成功合作的基础上，学科（犯罪学或刑事司法，家庭关系，法律，公共政策，政治学，社会工作和社会学），和职业生涯的阶段（助理，副教授，和全职教授，研究生），其工作是面向提高研究的种族/民族，犯罪和刑事司法的相互联系的质量，并扩大对这一主题的研究的视角和参与。这些学者最近出版了一本书，《犯罪的多种色彩》，在书中他们提出了一个重要的新研究议程（见Peterson，Krivo和Hagan 2006）。该项目的第一个目标是进行该卷中所要求的各种研究，从而开始提供比迄今为止更深入、更细致的对种族/民族、犯罪和刑事司法之间相互关系的理解。该项目的第二个目标是通过建立一个年度夏季研究所，作为2006年试点研究所的后续行动，促进来自代表性不足群体的青年学者的研究和专业发展，以便对犯罪和司法进行创新研究。该研究所的首要目的是支持少数民族从事犯罪和司法研究的进步，以进一步民主包容在哥伦比亚，并通过支持这些学者可以提供的潜在的不同观点来推进这一领域的知识。为了促进项目目标的实现，PI将举办一系列研讨会，将小组成员聚集在一起，并为来自代表性不足群体的年轻学者举办夏季研究和专业发展研究所。研讨会将以创意和产品为导向，并作为规划和推进合作项目的机制。暑期研究所将在一个“安全”和资源丰富的环境中进行，并为年轻教师提供完成期刊出版或赠款申请所需的支持，培训和指导。该研究所将以参与者在RDCJ-N研讨会上介绍他们的工作而告终，在研讨会上，他们将获得反馈，并与该领域的其他高级和初级学者建立网络。这个项目的结构是有两个重要的更广泛的影响奖学金和学院。首先，它将借鉴学者的专业知识，这些学者在沿着许多方面（例如，种族和民族，学科培训和职业生涯阶段），以发展和开展重大的创新犯罪和司法研究。这项工作的中心前提是，必须考虑到种族/族裔的复杂性，并将分析纳入社会各群体的不同定位。通过合作，多方法和比较研究，研究人员将产生一个原始的多学科的工作，强调犯罪/刑事司法的种族变量的重要性，以及种族化如何与公民和民主的理解，国家和世界各地。第二，该项目将扩大参与犯罪和司法研究，通过培养来自代表性不足的群体的学者的职业。讲习班和暑期研究所将共同产生普遍影响，使犯罪和刑事司法研究和课程的观点和参与方式多样化。
