S02 E11 -The Pedagogies of Punishment Project: The Legitimacy of Punishment The Emotional Curriculum

In the third episode in our series exploring the use of punishments in schools we talk to Winston C. Thompson and Abby Beneke about their work which explores what makes punishment in schools legitimate. 
We discuss three criteria which can guide reflections on whether punishments in schools could be considered legitimate: the authority to punish; the moral standing to condemn; the educative license to punish.  We also consider how identity can affect how punishments are perceived and how 'descriptive representation' can go someway to redressing perceived illegitimacy of punishment.
