Download or read book Corporal Punishment in Preschool and at Home in Tanzania written by Reuben Sungwa and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines educators and parents’ practices of corporal punishment of preschool-aged children in school and at home in Tanzania, considering why it is that many children in Tanzania are still subject to corporal punishment. It explores the attitudes of parents, teachers, and educational leaders about corporal punishment, in the context of existing government policies, laws, and regulations, using interviews, questionnaires and observation. Corporal punishment is widely and frequently used by both parents and teachers as a way of maintaining discipline, with most regarding it favourably as a means of behavioural modification. Furthermore, the book shows that the use of corporal punishment in Tanzania is influenced by cultural norms and religious beliefs, teacher qualifications and parents’ levels of education, past experiences of corporal punishment, and related beliefs about the practice. Crucially, there has not yet been a societal-level legal framework established to protect children from the harms involved.

Download or read book Corporal Punishment of Children in International and National Law written by Desiree Gumpenberger and published by Wolf Legal Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite the growing consensus that corporal punishment violates children's fundamental human rights - the respect for human dignity and physical integrity - most of the world's children are still subjected to assault. Against this background, this book discusses and compares the characteristics of corporal punishment of children as laid down in international documents, such as the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child, the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, and the Convention against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment. The book also looks at regional documents, including the European Convention on Human Rights, the African Charter on the Rights and Welfare of the Child, and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights. Each chapter starts with a short introduction, followed by an examination of a definition of corporal punishment, and shows the role of expert bodies who are monitoring the implementation and processes of standard-setting. Therefore, a distinction is made between the prohibition in alternative care settings, schools, and by parents, which leads to the question: "Is corporal punishment of children by their parents prohibited?" The second part of the book deals with a comparative study, analyzing the implementation of the previously discussed documents in the UK, Zambia, South Africa, and Belgium. Hence, the question is "How does the State implement the provision of the prohibition of corporal punishment in domestic law?" which is followed by the question "Has the specific State prohibited corporal punishment of children by their parents?" The book ends with a conclusion in which the above-mentioned countries are compared with each other.

Download or read book Corporal Punishment in U S Public Schools written by Elizabeth T. Gershoff and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-01-27 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Brief reviews the past, present, and future use of school corporal punishment in the United States, a practice that remains legal in 19 states as it is constitutionally permitted according to the U.S. Supreme Court. As a result of school corporal punishment, nearly 200,000 children are paddled in schools each year. Most Americans are unaware of this fact or the physical injuries sustained by countless school children who are hit with objects by school personnel in the name of discipline. Therefore, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools begins by summarizing the legal basis for school corporal punishment and trends in Americans’ attitudes about it. It then presents trends in the use of school corporal punishment in the United States over time to establish its past and current prevalence. It then discusses what is known about the effects of school corporal punishment on children, though with so little research on this topic, much of the relevant literature is focused on parents’ use of corporal punishment with their children. It also provides results from a policy analysis that examines the effect of state-level school corporal punishment bans on trends in juvenile crime. It concludes by discussing potential legal, policy, and advocacy avenues for abolition of school corporal punishment at the state and federal levels as well as summarizing how school corporal punishment is being used and what its potential implications are for thousands of individual students and for the society at large. As school corporal punishment becomes more and more regulated at the state level, Corporal Punishment in U.S. Public Schools serves an essential guide for policymakers and advocates across the country as well as for researchers, scientist-practitioners, and graduate students.
