AbstractThis article examines women's experiences of participating in 'Healing Trauma'; a gender‐responsive, trauma‐informed intervention delivered in women's prisons in England. Victimisation and trauma are prevalent among women in the justice system but are not perceived to be amenable to criminal justice intervention, and there are compelling arguments that correctional environments are inappropriate settings for trauma‐informed programmes. This article analyses focus group discussions with women who completed Healing Trauma to examine the legitimacy of developing trauma‐informed practice in prisons. The women's testimonies indicate that Healing Trauma offers a meaningful opportunity to begin to explore past victimisation that has contributed to their criminalisation.

Schengen Agreements reorganize border control activities in Europe on the base of the affirmation of the principle of free movement, creating a double legal framework for external and internal borders. The increase of migratory movements involved the reintroduction of controls on several Member States' internal borders, including France. This possibility to reintroduce border controls, deriving from European law, has been the object of several modifications during last years, in order to improve and reinforce national powers and roles in the field of migration policies and border control activities. The analysis of these policies, the study of European and national legal framework and the observation of police practices implemented in Italo-French borders reveal Schengen area law's securitarian approach. These policies involve several violations of migrants', asylum seekers' and vulnerable persons' human rights. These policies reveal also the crisis of the rule of law, a juridical paradigm based on human right's universality. ; Les accords de Schengen réorganisent le contrôle frontalier en Europe sur la base de l'affirmation du principe de libre circulation créant un double régime juridique applicable aux frontières intérieure et extérieures. L'augmentation des flux migratoires a comporté le rétablissement des contrôles aux frontières intérieures de plusieurs États membres, dont la France. Cette possibilité de réintroduire les contrôles, prévue par le droit européen, a subi des modifications importantes au cours des années, qui ont renforcé le rôle et les prérogatives étatiques en matière de politiques migratoires et de contrôle frontalier. L'analyse de ces politiques, des ordres juridiques nationaux et européens, ainsi que des pratiques policières mises en oeuvre à la frontière franco italienne, dévoile le caractère sécuritaire du droit de l'espace Schengen. Ces politiques comportent en effet le non-respect quasi-systématique des droits des personnes migrantes, notamment des demandeurs d'asile et des personnes ...
