New Job at York St John University

Matt Spokes, a Teaching Fellow in the Department has been appointed to a permanent Lectureship in Criminology and Sociology at York St John University.

Matt successfully completed his PhD on The Contemporary Avant-Garde: Classification, Organization, Spatiality and Practices of Resistance earlier this year. He has made a massive contribution to the teaching the second year Crime, Culture and Social Change module and Social Research Methods as well as running and teaching on the first year Sociology of Crime and Deviance module. He has been a vital part of the Crime Team here at York and we are sorry to see him go but are glad that he is remaining local and has achieved a lectureship.
