New Mandala's Philippines editor Dr Nicole Curato speaks with Dr Clarke Jones from the Australian National University (ANU) about what real-world effects the Philippines' "tough on crime" mentality has in the prison system.

Clarke Jones is a criminologist based at the ANU's Research School of Psychology, specialising in ethnographic, longitudinal and participant observation research. As part of the Australian Intervention Support Hub, Dr Jones works closely with communities that are often marginalised, hard-to-access and at-risk. This includes terrorist offenders and prison gangs in the Philippines, as well as work with specific marginalised and vulnerable communities in Australia.

He is the co-author along with Dr Raymund Narag of "Inmate Radicalisation and Recruitment in Prisons" (Routledge, 2018), which draws on their ethnographic research inside the Philippine prison system.
