Ep. 67 Grad Spotlight: Employment, Work History, and Recidivism with Simon Kolbeck

This week we speak with Simon Kolbeck, a doctoral candidate at The Ohio State University's Department of Sociology. Simon talks to us about the impacts that incarceration can have on recidivism, what role employment plays, and how race and ethnicity matter. We discuss a paper by Simon in which he studied the role of work history and race in the employment-recidivism relationship.    Simon has been published in places like Criminology and the Journal of Offender Rehabilitation.
