Dr. Adam Aitken

Dr. Adam Aitken is a Lecturer in Criminology at De Montfort University. He taught previously at Glasgow University, where he was lecturer for the MSc Criminological Perspectives in Security and Globalization module. He has conducted research around the communication of risk and security: how these issues are socially constructed and symbolically presented, and the ways in which security governance arrangements; the relationship between public and private security actors and citizens, contributes to particular understandings and experiences of (in)security.

He has presented the findings of this research at international conferences in Rio de Janeiro in the build up to the city's hosting of the 2014 FIFA World Cup and 2016 Olympics, and at Policing conferences across Scotland. And is currently preparing articles for submission to different academic journals.
