Abstract
In light of recent debates on ‘public criminology’, this article chooses to focus on teaching
as a way of reaching more publics. The various characteristics of a more public and
engaged discipline are discussed and applied specifically to the teaching of criminology,
including the relative merits and demerits of reorienting teaching in this way. Following on
from this discussion, the article outlines some practical ways in which this vision can be
realised. Given the many affinities between the Burawoyan concept of public ‘-ologies’ and
the scholarship of learning and teaching, an argument is advanced for teaching as one of
the first steps towards the practice of a more public criminology.
