Speaker Series: Maria-Fátima Santos

Professor Santos’s current research examines public defenders who counsel poor people in Brazil’s penal courts to clarify key dynamics that shape legal aid professions in different contexts, including their relationship to inequality, racialized violence and state transformation. In other work, Fátima examines how carceral administration connects to dynamics of social conflict and political legitimacy.
