About Gregory
Greg Martin serves as Associate Dean (Research and Innovation) in the School of Law and Criminology at Murdoch University. He earned his PhD from the University of Exeter in 1997. Previously, he held academic positions including at the University of Western Australia and the University of Sydney, where he was Professor of Criminology and Socio-Legal Studies in the Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences, Discipline of Sociology and Criminology. Martin's interdisciplinary research spans criminology, law, sociology, media studies, and social movements. His academic interests focus on protest politics, the intersections of crime, media, and culture, secrecy in legal processes, activist criminology, and the socio-legal dimensions of public order policing and contentious politics.
Martin has made significant contributions through authorship and editorship of key texts in his fields. Notable publications include Understanding Social Movements (Routledge, 2015), Crime, Media and Culture (Routledge, 2019), Social Movements and Protest Politics, second edition (Routledge, 2024), as well as co-edited volumes such as Secrecy, Law and Society (Routledge, 2015) and The Emerald International Handbook of Activist Criminology (Emerald, 2023). He is a founding co-editor of the Emerald Studies in Activist Criminology book series, Associate Editor of Crime Media Culture, and serves on the editorial boards of Social Movement Studies and The Sociological Review. His work has influenced scholarship on how media shapes perceptions of crime and protest, the legal regulation of social movements, and the role of secrecy in democratic societies. Martin organizes academic events, including the 2024 symposium on Intersections of Media, Law, Communication and Crime hosted by Murdoch University. His extensive publication record underscores his impact in advancing critical perspectives on law, crime, and social contention.
