In Red Zones, Marie-Eve Sylvestre, Nicholas Blomley, and Celine
Bellot examine the court-imposed territorial restrictions and other
bail and sentencing conditions that are increasingly issued in the
context of criminal proceedings. Drawing on extensive fieldwork
with legal actors in the criminal justice system, as well as those
who have been subjected to court surveillance, the authors
demonstrate the devastating impact these restrictions have on the
marginalized populations - the homeless, drug users, sex workers
and protesters - who depend on public spaces. On a broader level,
the authors show how red zones, unlike better publicized forms of
spatial regulation such as legislation or policing strategies,
create a form of legal territorialization that threatens to invert
traditional expectations of justice and reshape our understanding
of criminal law and punishment.
