AB - This article draws on the sociology of knowledge literature to bring to light several                social mechanisms used to police the production and circulation of criminological                knowledge. The discussion draws from actor-network theory and feminist analyses in                science and technology studies to make visible mechanisms of construction,                filtering, negotiation and appropriation. By way of illustration, the article draws                on an actual case of scientific, political and media marginalization of disquieting                research findings on prison conditions in Canada. Taking these reactions as a                starting point, the analysis discusses, among other things, the hierarchy of                paradigms and the gendered structures that affect researchers’ admission                into a scientific community and their access to discursive resources.
