This process involves national, but also and progressively, international agents, from the traditional role of the UN to contemporary international think-tanks. We welcome papers discussing empirically based and theoretically informed papers addressing how the new political and administrative category of “security” impacted the criminal and the penal sectors of the state, emphasizing the interaction between national and local political forces with international discourses and agents, including center-states` agents and international governmental and non-governmental organizations. The crisis of the penal system has unraveled ha both theoretical and practical discussions on the changes in policies and its contradictions. We will dissect the ways in which the category of security gave new meaning to the traditional crime control function as well as the agents involved and effects. We will discuss historical, comparative or case studies that address in particular the interaction between national and subnational political dynamics with international discursive frames and agents impacting the transformation on the penal sectors of the state in the states of the global south.
