Inequalities in a diverse world

Nottingham Conference Centre

Editor’s Note

The British Society of Criminology’s 2016 Conference was held from 6-8 July in Nottingham and, for the first time, was organised by the executive committee. The theme was ‘Inequalities in a Diverse World’, a topic addressed by two plenary speakers: leading criminologist, Kelly Hannah-Moffat and prominent political economist and writer, Will Hutton. As always the journal has a rigorous peer-review process but (hopefully) a sympathetic approach to authors – especially early career and postgraduate authors – with helpful feedback and advice, even if a paper is rejected. There is a tight timetable in order to publish the same year as the conference and so we are hugely indebted to the reviewers and the authors for turning things around so promptly. Many interesting papers were rejected purely because tight deadlines did not allow enough polishing time.
