European Journal of Criminology Abstract Building and expanding on contemporary research where desistance is increasingly conceived of asa fragile and liminal experience, this paper examines the early dof ambivalence – an undertheorised concept in life course criminology. This paper employs qualitativeinterviews from a total of 10 participants who participated in SIG, a voluntary defector programmein Sweden. Despite having formulated a clear resolve to desist, the participantsnonetheless experienced feelings of ambivalence in relation to the desistance process. In theseinstances, the aspiring desisters were bordering between the prospects of a better, crime-freelife and the pains, losses, struggles and frustrations accompanying the early stages of desistance.It is argued that this liminal position, where the old life is to be discarded and a new, better lifeis yet to be built, may constitute a breeding ground for ambivalence – a state which needs tobe grounded in the precarious social position of marginalised youth which aspiring desisters typicallyoccupy.

Research seminar with Eva Erman. AbstractThe study of the social and ethical impact of AI is still in its infancy and contributions to the field have to keep up with the continuous developments of the important procedural aspects of good AI governance. One of the most important properties of good governance is political legitimacy. Starting out from the assumption that AI governance should be seen as global in scope, this paper has a twofold aim: a) to develop a theoretical framework for theorizing the political legitimacy of global AI governance and b) to demonstrate how it can be used as a critical yardstick for assessing the (lack of) legitimacy of actual instances of AI governance.
