From the ir identification on the streets by police officers to their reassignment to a different unit of the Public Prosecutor's Office or their adjudicatio n at a criminal court\, flagrant criminal offences are defined by a specif ic way of approaching the alleged facts\, which is translated into specifi c organizational and documentary practices. As a technicality\, the flagra nt character of a criminal offence conveys certain epistemological assumpt ions about how to determine what happened and what exactly constitutes the criminal offence. In the first part of this talk\, Dr. Araya-Moreno will discuss the data and analysis presented in the paper. The second part will reflect on the implications of her work for the ethnographic study of cri minal law bureaucracies and\, particularly\, how legal technicalities conv ey certain assumptions about gender in Chile.\n\nBio\n\nDr. Javiera Araya- Moreno is currently a postdoctoral researcher in the Ethnography Lab at Co ncordia University and the Centro de investigación en derecho y sociedad a t the Universidad Adolfo Ibáñez\, in Santiago\, Chile. She holds a PhD in sociology from the Université de Montréal. In her research\, Dr. Araya-Mor eno focuses on how criminal law shapes people's daily lives in Chile\, and particularly on how criminal justice bureaucracies treat crimes through s pecific socio-legal arrangements.
