Professor Vanessa Barker, Ph.D., has received a one-year fellowship from the Princeton University Program in Law and Public Affairs (LAPA). Each year, LAPA brings to Princeton five or six world-class experts on the law. Drawn from law schools, the social sciences, the humanities, and from the world of policy-making and legal practice, the fellows are in full-time residence at Princeton for an entire academic year. During her fellowship, Barker will teach a graduate seminar on punishment and society and conduct research for a new book on comparative penal sanctions in Europe.
