In her latest book, “Self, Others and the State – Relations of Criminal Responsibility”, Professor Loughnan reassesses the rise to prominence of criminal responsibility within the Australian criminal law in the twentieth century and reconsiders its significance within the criminal law. In this episode Nicole and Professor Loughnan discuss the central thesis of her book – that criminal responsibility is significant because of the unique role it plays in organising key sets of relations – between individuals, other and the state – as relations of responsibility. To illustrate her argument, they talk about “the gendered self”,  focusing on women’s responsibility for crime, the offence of consorting and government responses to allegations of institutional child abuse.
