Profile

Biography

Colin joined the School of Law at Essex as a Lecturer in Law in 2018, having previously held an Associate Lecturer post at the University of Kent, between 2003 and 2018. Colin's research interests are historical in relation to crime history, and contemporaneous in relation to both corporate and fiduciary law. Colin's historical focus is on the early twentieth century generally, with crime and policing in the inter-war years being the subject of his current monograph project. He also has an interest in contemporary corporate and fiduciary law, focusing on questions surrounding the concept of corporate accountability. Colin is also a founder member of the Women's Legal History Network. Colin is happy to supervise PhD students in the areas of corporate law, fiduciary law, crime and/or policing history, and women's legal history. Please contact Colin via email in the first instance.
