Bio/Research
Dr. Anne-Marie Singh has an inter-disciplinary and international education with a Master of Arts (M.A.) in Criminology from the University of Toronto and a Ph.D. in Sociology from the University of London. She has taught criminology and sociology at the University of Guelph, University of Toronto (at Mississauga), and York University before coming to Toronto Metropolitan University. She has taught undergraduate courses in the areas of policing, social deviance, theory, women and the criminal justice system, crime and criminal justice, as well as research-based courses.
Dr. Singh's research and publications concern contemporary social theory (especially the work of Michel Foucault), policing and governance. She is specifically interested in the role and interaction of various state and non-state actors in the field of security and the place of coercive practices in contemporary liberal democratic society. Dr. Singh has contributed to policing reform in post-apartheid South Africa and has written a number of policy documents on transforming security systems. While in the United Kingdom, she worked as a researcher for the Centre for Urban and Community Research (Goldsmiths College) on local security projects in London. She was also part of the Arbour Commission on the Prison for Women.
