Power, Harm & Justice Research Unit
The Power, Harm and Justice Research Unit was established in 2015 and provides a network for colleagues who are engaged in research around the inter-relationship between: state/corporate power, state/corporate discourse, and an examination of their impacts through the lenses of zemiology (study of social harms) and agnotology (deliberate construction of social ignorance). The focus of the unit is ‘institutional power’, or to use David Whyte’s (2009) definition the:
“Form of power transmitted through state institutions and private business organisations or companies”
