Book The Oxford Handbook of Gender  Sex  and Crime

Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Gender Sex and Crime written by Rosemary Gartner and published by Oxford Handbooks. This book was released on 2014 with total page 745 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The editors, Rosemary Gartner and Bill McCarthy, have assembled a diverse cast of criminologists, historians, legal scholars, psychologists, and sociologists from a number of countries to discuss key concepts and debates central to the field. The Handbook includes examinations of the historical and contemporary patterns of women's and men's involvement in crime; as well as biological, psychological, and social science perspectives on gender, sex, and criminal activity. Several essays discuss the ways in which sex and gender influence legal and popular reactions to crime. An important theme throughout The Handbook is the intersection of sex and gender with ethnicity, class, age, peer groups, and community as influences on crime and justice. Individual chapters investigate both conventional topics - such as domestic abuse and sexual violence - and topics that have only recently drawn the attention of scholars - such as human trafficking, honor killing, gender violence during war, state rape, and genocide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The adoption in November 1989, by the UN General Assembly, of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child heralded the arrival of a new era in the development of children's rights. As of March 1991 over 75 states have ratified the Convention. Using the Convention as a frameworkthe contributors to this volume set out to re-evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of approaching issues of children's welfare and well-being through the lens of a `rights' approach. The aim is to take a fresh look at these issues and to do so with specific reference to an international treatythat is certain to be ratified by a very large number of countries in every region of the world and which will soon be legally binding in many states.This is a special issue of the International Journal of Law and the Family.Contributors: Tom Campbell, Onora O'Neill, Michael Freeman, Ngaire Naffine, Margaret Coady, Tony Coady, Sheila McLean, Frances Olsen, and John Eekelaar.

Book Teaching About Adolescence

Download or read book Teaching About Adolescence written by John McKinney and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-05-30 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For this volume, Professors McKinney, Schiamberg, and Shelton assembled contributors to write about something that is written about far too infrequently: How to present scientific research on adolescent development in ways students find interesting, believable, relevant, and worth remembering when the term is over. Graduate education in adolescent development almost always guarantees adequate training in research and theory, but training in creative pedagogy is more often than not left to chance. Those of us who teach adolescence regularly know that colleagues all over the world use innovative approaches to take advantage of the real-world relevance of the material, but most of these approaches remain insiders’ tricks of the trade. Teaching About Adolescence is, to my knowledge, the first volume that describes and explains how—and, more importantly, why—the best teachers of adolescence do what they do. It is a much needed book. But this book is much more than a collection of recipes for interesting class exercises or term projects. First published in 1999. Routledge is an imprint of Taylor & Francis, an informa company.

Book Handbook of Domestic Violence Intervention Strategies

Download or read book Handbook of Domestic Violence Intervention Strategies written by Albert R. Roberts and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-03-28 with total page 566 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Public awareness regarding the life-threatening nature and intense traumatic impact of domestic violence has substantially increased in the past decade. At the same time, dramatic changes have taken place regarding criminal justice and social work policies and practices applied to domestic violence intervention. And while the prevalence of domestic violence has declined slightly, national estimates still indicate that every year, approximately eight million women are abused, battered, stalked, or killed by their husbands, boyfriends, and other intimate partners. Featuring cutting-edge research and expert intervention strategies, the Handbook of Domestic Violence Intervention Strategies: Policies, Programs, and Legal Remedies is designed to prepare professionals to swiftly and compassionately meet the multiple needs of women and children who have suffered from domestic violence. This original and indispensable volume focuses on the numerous advances in legal remedies, program developments, treatment protocols, and multidisciplinary perspectives. It is a comprehensive guide to the latest research, public policies, and legal and criminal justice responses, covering federal and state legislation as well as trends in police and court responses to domestic violence. This is the first book to include court-based technology developments and new research related to the duration and intensity of woman battering. Highlighting actual cases and promising programs, the handbook also addresses important social work issues, including risk assessment protocols, a new five level continuum of woman battering, intervention methods, and treatment models. The book also examines the myriad legal issues and health problems facing the most neglected and vulnerable battered women. Written by expert practitioners and leading scholars in the field, the book's 23 chapters provide rich insights into the complexities and challenges of addressing domestic violence. This timely and definitive handbook is recommended for students, clinicians, policy makers, and researchers in the fields of social work, victim services, criminal justice, hospital administration, mental health counseling, public health, pastoral counseling, law enforcement. In fact, this volume is a critical resource for all helping professionals who are assisting abused women in escaping and remaining free from violent relationships.

Book Manual on International Courts and Tribunals

Download or read book Manual on International Courts and Tribunals written by Ruth Mackenzie and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 575 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic rise in the number of international courts and tribunals and the expansion of their legal powers has been one of the most significant developments in international law of the late 20th century. The emergence of an international judiciary provided international law with a stronger than ever law enforcement apparatus, and facilitated the transformation of many aspects of international relations from being power-based to being law-based. The first edition of the Manual on International Courts and Tribunals, published in 1999, was the first book to survey systematically this new institutional landscape, by describing in an accessible and uniformly structured manner the legal powers and operating procedures of all major international judicial and quasi-judicial bodies. In doing so, it laid the groundwork for comparative study and research of the law and practice of international courts and tribunals - an emerging field of international legal research, which has already spurred a series of publications, conferences and academic courses. This second edition updates the first edition by describing the many legal changes that have taken place in the last decade, including important reforms in the laws and procedures of many international courts and tribunals, relevant developments in their increasingly rich jurisprudence and the creation of new judicial fora. Moreover, it assesses the overall record of these judicial bodies. The data and legal analysis offered in the book provide both practitioners and academics with an important basis of knowledge that will help them better understand the details of international adjudication and its context.

Book Kafkaesque Laws  Nisour Square  and the Trials of the Former Blackwater Guards

Download or read book Kafkaesque Laws Nisour Square and the Trials of the Former Blackwater Guards written by Marouf A. Hasian and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides academics and lay persons with Kafkaesque readings of our memories of the 2007 Nisour Square shootings in Iraq. The author uses critical analyses of the rise of Blackwater, support for private security firms and private contracting, prosecutorial and defense preparations and the 2014 jury trial to argue that most observers have drastically underestimated the groundswell of support that existed for Erik Prince and many other defenders of military or security outsourcing. This book puts on display the cultural, legal, and political difficulties that confronted those who wanted to try former Blackwater security guards in the name of belated social justice.
