The Murphy Institute's Center for Ethics and the Center for Inter-American Policy and Research will welcome Beatriz Magaloni, Professor in Stanford University's Department of Political Science and a Senior Fellow at the Freeman Spogli Institute for International Studies (FSI) at Stanford University, as the featured speaker for the second installment of 2024's Public Lecture Series. She is also director of the Poverty, Violence and Governance Lab. Her current work focuses on state repression, police, human rights, and violence, and her topic for the public lecture will center around her pathbreaking work in police violence.
Professor Magaloni's scholarship has been celebrated with numerous awards and prizes, including the 2023 Stockholm Prize in Criminology, the world's most prestigious award in the field.
