Book Penas de prisi  n de larga duraci  n

Download or read book Penas de prisi n de larga duraci n written by Francisco Javier de León Villalba and published by . This book was released on 2017-11 with total page 707 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Las penas de prisión de larga duración constituyen uno de los mayores desafíos penológicos de la sociedad actual, que parece caminar inexorablemente hacia horizontes punitivos cada vez más extremos, como lo demuestra la reciente introducción de la prisión permanente revisable en nuestro ordenamiento. Una comprensión integral de esta tipología de penas exige el desarrollo de un estudio interdisciplinar en el que se aborden, de manera específica, los diversos aspectos que intervienen e influyen tanto en el diseño de la línea de política criminal frente a los delitos más graves, como en su previsión legal y ejecución. En este sentido, este libro recoge un significativo número de aportaciones de especialistas de diversas áreas en las que se ofrece una perspectiva transversal de las penas de prisión de larga duración, que pone de manifiesto no solo la complejidad inherente a este tipo de penas, sino también la necesidad de una profunda reflexión que ofrezca una respuesta coherente a los múltiples interrogantes planteados en torno a su necesidad, finalidad y modelos de ejecución específicos.

Download or read book La prisi n permanente revisable written by Ángela Casals Fernández and published by Boletín Oficial del Estado. This book was released on 2019-04-01 with total page 283 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Este libro nace de la inclusión de esta novedosa institución en nuestro ordenamiento jurídico a través de la reforma operada por la Ley Orgánica 1/2015, de 30 de marzo. Su regulación ha sido muy cuestionada esgrimiéndose importantes argumentos acerca de la inconstitucionalidad de esta nueva figura penal. Contiene una aproximación histórica y legislativa del proceso de formación de nuestra legislación penal, haciendo un recorrido anterior al primer Código Penal de 1822 hasta la actualidad. Un análisis de derecho comparado, tomando como principales países de estudio Alemania, Italia, Francia y Reino Unido. Analiza la regulación de la pena de prisión permanente revisable, desde los antecedentes y los diferentes anteproyectos, pasando por su naturaleza jurídica y su regulación, así como la aplicación de la pena, finalizando con una propuesta de lege ferenda. También hace un recorrido por los aspectos penitenciarios de la ejecución de la pena de prisión permanente revisable, además de un exhaustivo análisis del proceso de revisión, imprescindible para que la pena perpetua resulte ajustada al Convenio Europeo de Derechos Humanos, toda vez que se exige que se garantice una expectativa de liberación al condenado. Es por ello que resulta sorprendente que el proceso de revisión no adquiera independencia y autonomía en la norma punitiva, además de contener unos requisitos para poder optar a la revisión de la pena, muy cuestionados constitucionalmente.

Book The Politics of Protection

Download or read book The Politics of Protection written by Jef Huysmans and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2006-05-17 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new book shows how from the end of the Cold War, the security agenda has been transformed and redefined, academically and politically. It focuses on the theme of protection. It moves away from the dominant question of whom or what is threatening to the crucial questions of who is to be protected, and in the case of conflicting claims, who has the capacity to define whose needs prevail. It also poses the question of political agency in relation to some of the most significant questions raised in relation to the governance of insecurity and protection in the contemporary world. The authors identify and explore issues that challenge or raise a number of questions about the traditional notion that states are to protect their citizens through retaining a monopoly over the legitimate use of violence.

Book Governing Societies  Political Perspectives On Domestic And International Rule

Download or read book Governing Societies Political Perspectives On Domestic And International Rule written by Dean, Mitchell and published by McGraw-Hill Education (UK). This book was released on 2007-06-01 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What structures of power are involved in governing societies and how are they connected? How is the liberal idea of governing through freedom linked to the increasing control of marginalised populations? Have we reached the end of history in which governing largely concerns self-governing individuals, networks and communities? Should we dispense with the 'container view of society' and contemplate the 'death of the social'? Today, many people in academia, politics and business, question the idea of being able to govern society. The nation state and sovereign government are displaced by globalization and individualization. Mitchell Dean focuses on ‘governing societies’ as a distinctive project that continues to define political life today. The book offers a critical analysis of contemporary liberal approaches to governing societies both in domestic and international affairs. Governing Societies provides an overview of current perspectives and theories and examines recent transformations in techniques and rationalities of rule. It presents a new argument for the importance and transformation of sovereignty and powers of life and death and how they are integral to governing liberal-democratic societies. The book is key reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of sociology and politics, as well as researchers and academics.

  • Publisher : Princeton University Press
  • Release : 2024-06-04
  • ISBN : 0691211949
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Against the Death Penalty written by CESARE. PELLI BECCARIA (GIUSEPPIE. BECCARIA, CESARE.) and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-06-04 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1764, a Milanese aristocrat named Cesare Beccaria created a sensation when he published On Crimes and Punishments. At its centre is a rejection of the death penalty as excessive, unnecessary, and pointless. Beccaria is deservedly regarded as the founding father of modern criminal law reform, yet he was not the first to argue for the abolition of the death penalty. This book presents the first English translation of the Florentine aristocrat Giuseppe Pelli's critique of capital punishment, written three years before Beccaria's treatise, but lost for more than two centuries in the Pelli family archives. The book examines the contrasting arguments of the two abolitionists, who drew from different intellectual traditions.

Book The Crisis of Representation

  • Publisher : V&R unipress GmbH
  • Release : 2019-01-21
  • ISBN : 3737007330
  • Pages : 350 pages

Download or read book The Crisis of Representation written by Kurt Appel and published by V&R unipress GmbH. This book was released on 2019-01-21 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term “Crisis of Representation” rose to fame through Michel Foucault. The crisis, in the context of this issue, has not only a political and economic dimension, but a cultural, aesthetic and religious one as well. Thus, a serious inquiry into this complex and multidimensional phenomenon requires an interdisciplinary approach. The issue targets the phenomena at hand through 15 contributions – all with unique and innovative approaches to the topic. One common aim that holds the issue together is the analysis of the nature of the crisis, which helps to find suitable theoretical frameworks. On the other hand, the term itself functions as a tool that enables the analysis of specific societal developments. Contributing authors brought with them expertise from their respective fields including philosophy, political sciences, theology, Islamic studies and religious studies. This allowed for a cross-disciplinary approach on the phenomenon with special foci on politics, religions, societies and finance, as well as theoretical developments on current philosophical and post-colonial discourses.

Book Marketisation and Privatisation in Criminal Justice

Download or read book Marketisation and Privatisation in Criminal Justice written by Albertson, Kevin and published by Policy Press. This book was released on 2020-07-03 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This collection offers a comprehensive review of the origins, scale and breadth of the privatisation and marketisation revolution across the criminal justice system. Leading academics and researchers assess the consequences of market-driven criminal justice in a wide range of contexts, from prison and probation to policing, migrant detention, rehabilitation and community programmes. Using economic, sociological and criminological perspectives, illuminated by accessible case studies, they consider the shifting roles and interactions of the public, private and voluntary sectors. As privatisation, outsourcing and the impact of market cultures spread further across the system, the authors look ahead to future developments and signpost the way to reform in a ‘post-market’ criminal justice sphere.

  • ISBN : 0300252358
  • Pages : 296 pages

Download or read book The Woman on the Windowsill written by Sylvia Sellers-Garcia and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2020-02-18 with total page 296 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story of violence and punishment that illuminates a transformative moment in Guatemalan history On the morning of July 1, 1800, a surveyor and mapmaker named Cayetano Díaz opened the window of his study in Guatemala City to find a horrific sight: a pair of severed breasts. Offering a meticulously researched and evocative account of the quest to find the perpetrator and understand the motives behind such a brutal act, this volume pinpoints the sensational crime as a watershed moment in Guatemalan history that radically changed the nature of justice and the established social order. Sylvia Sellers-García reveals how this bizarre and macabre event spurred an increased attention to crime that resulted in more forceful policing and reflected important policy decisions not only in Guatemala but across Latin America. This fascinating book is both an engaging criminal case study and a broader consideration of the forces shaping Guatemala City at the brink of the modern era.

Book Citizenship and Security

Download or read book Citizenship and Security written by Xavier Guillaume and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book engages the intense relationship between citizenship and security in modern politics. It focuses on questions of citizenship in security analysis in order to critically evaluate how political being is and can be constituted in relation to securitising practices. In light of contemporary issues and events such as human rights regimes, terrorism, identity control, commercialisation of security, diaspora, and border policies, this book addresses a citizenship deficit in security studies. The chapters introduce several key political themes that characterise the interplays between citizenship and security: changes in citizenship regimes, the renewed insecurity of citizenship-state relations, the emerging ways by which the political and national communities are crafted, and the ways democratic societies and regimes react in times of insecurity. Approaching citizenship as both a governmental practice and a resource of political contestation, the book aims to highlight what political challenges and contestations are created in situations where security intensely meets citizenship today. This book will be of interest to scholars of security studies and security politics, citizenship studies, and international relations.
