Biography

Claire Hamilton is Professor of Criminology and Head of Criminology in the School of Law and Criminology.

Claire practised as a barrister in criminal law until 2004 when she became a full time academic. Prior to joining Maynooth University she worked for several years as a lecturer in criminology in Dublin Institute of Technology and Queen's University Belfast. She has also been a visiting scholar at the Vera Institute of Justice in New York, John Jay College of Criminal Justice in New York, the Centre for Criminology, Oxford University and Griffith Criminology Institute, Griffith University, Brisbane.

Claire's research interests coalesce around the (comparative) politics of crime, security and rights, spanning criminal procedure reforms, counter-terrorism and penology. She has published widely in various national and international legal and criminological journals including Punishment & Society, the British Journal of Criminology, Theoretical Criminology and the European Journal of Criminology. She is the author/co-editor of six books, the most recent of which is the Research Handbook of Comparative Criminal Justice (co-edited with David Nelken) published by Edward Elgar in 2022. Professor Hamilton's research has been funded by the British Academy, Royal Irish Academy, European Commission, Fulbright Commission, the Department of Justice and the Irish Research Council.

She is the editor (with Professor David Nelken) of the Routledge Advances in Criminology series and a member of the international editorial board of the International Journal of Law in Context (Cambridge University Press). She is a council member of the Association of Criminal Justice Research and Development and a member of the Research Advisory Board of the Department of Justice.

Claire welcomes research proposals in the area of criminology, penology and criminal justice/procedure, particularly proposals with a comparative element.

Research

Research Interests

My primary research interests are in the field of penology, particularly populism and its interaction with security. I am particularly interested in differences in cultures of security and the reasons for these differences.
