SUMMARY:Alternatives to Incarceration in Latin America and the Caribbean
DESCRIPTION:Drug laws and the region’s untenable prison crisis are at the center of the drug policy debate in Latin America and the Caribbean. The incarceration of low-level drug offenders for exceptionally long sentences has left the region’s prisons bursting at the seams; the impact is not only felt by those incarcerated\, but also by their families and communities. Cutting edge research by the Colectivo de Estudios Drogas y Derecho (Research Consortium on Drugs and the Law\, CEDD) and the Social Science Research Council (SSRC) sheds new light on the problem and efforts to address it through alternatives to incarceration. \nThe latest investigation carried out by CEDD\, which brings together researchers from 9 Latin American countries\, shows that despite the lively debate taking place across the region\, the number of people incarcerated for drug offenses continues to grow. The SSRC’s Drugs\, Security and Democracy (DSD) Program is carrying out an investigation on drug courts in Latin America and the Caribbean. The research to date offers an analysis and critique of drug courts as a public policy option that is increasingly under consideration by Latin American and Caribbean countries\, and the lessons to be learned from the U.S. experience. The session will conclude with a discussion of other alternatives to incarceration\, including measures taken prior to the initiation of a criminal proceeding.

SUMMARY:Identity\, Community\, and Political Participation
DESCRIPTION:Identity\, Community\, and Political Participation  was a two-day research design workshop that took place at Social Science Research Council headquarters in Brooklyn\, New York on February 7 and 8\, 2019. The workshop convened primarily younger scholars to develop in-progress or planned research projects on how political participation is fundamentally shaped by individual identity and/or community membership (and vice versa). \nThe workshop was organized from an open call for proposals from the Anxieties of Democracy program’s Identity\, Community\, and Participation working group\, whose members provided feedback and commentary on research design presentations. Working group member Adam Seth Levine also presented on how to build relationships with practitioners. \nResearch Design Presentations\nSarah Bruch\, Assistant Professor of Sociology\, the University of Iowa\nOrganizing Authority for Citizenship: Examining the Civic and Political Impacts of Authority Relations \nBernard Fraga\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, Indiana University\, Bloomington\nAn Inventory and Analysis of GOTV Efforts Targeting Communities of Color \nStacey Greene\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, Rutgers University\nThe Effects of Cross Group Comparisons \nPhilip Jones\, Associate Professor of Political Science and International Relations\, University of Delaware\nThe Mobilizing Effects of Emphasizing the Sameness or Difference of LGBTQ Identities \nJoshua Kalla\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, Yale University\nReducing Prejudice and Changing Policy Attitudes With Narrative Persuasion: New Field Experimental Results and Proposed Extensions \nSamara Klar\, Associate Professor of Political Science\, the University of Arizona\nBridging Political Polarization within American Communities \nBiko Koenig\, Assistant Professor of Government\, Franklin and Marshall College\nOrganizing and Mobilizing Class Identities in an Era of Rising Populism \nDaniel Laurison\, Assistant Professor of Sociology\, Swarthmore College\nWho “Feels Like a Voter?” How Poor and Working Class People Understand US Electoral Politics – the Pennsylvania Participation Project \nJulie Lee Merseth\, Assistant Professor of Political Science\, Northwestern University\nAsian American Political Activism: Mobilizing Group Identities \nEmily Pechar\, PhD Candidate in Environmental Policy\, Duke University\nUnderstanding Rural Identities and Environmental Policy Engagement in America \nBenita Roth\, Professor of Sociology and Women’s Studies\, Binghamton University\, SUNY\nMarginalized Voices and Activism Around the Opioid Epidemic in Upstate New York: Marginalized Voices\, Activism\, and Community \nLaFleur Stephens-Dougan\, Assistant Professor of Politics\, Princeton University\nDo All Lives Matter?
