Conducting research on and with these institutions comes with benefits and challenges that can lead to a complicated process with many barriers to entry, sometimes insurmountable. Despite challenges, a large body of empirical research has been published here in Canada and around the world. In this episode, we hear from four leading researchers in the field as they reflect on their research experiences, their processes for gaining access and their thoughts on conducting research on and with powerful criminal justice institutions.\n\nThis episode is supported in part by funding from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC)."}
