Download or read book La mediazione penale written by Paolo Fortunato Cuzzola and published by Key Editore. This book was released on 2018-04-11 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Il presente lavoro, ha per oggetto lo studio delle modalità con cui sono applicati i principi della giustizia riparativa, e in particolare della mediazione penale, nell'ambito del nostro ordinamento giudiziario minorile In particolare nel primo capitolo, sono ripercosse le ragioni storiche che hanno consentito l'affermarsi all'interno degli ordinamenti giudiziari occidentali dei principi di un nuovo modello di giustizia, quello riparativo. Tale analisi non ha potuto prescindere dallo studio delle principali fonti internazionali, che hanno favorito la diffusione più o meno rapida in quasi tutti i paesi occidentali di questa nuova forma di giustizia. La sua diffusione nel mondo giuridico è avvenuta secondo due principali modelli, quello francese e quello anglosassone, che nel presente lavoro sono stati oggetto di studio. Il legislatore, in conformità con le principali fonti internazionali e costituzionali, ha deciso di attribuire al processo penale a carico del minorenne soprattutto la finalità educativa e responsabilizzante. Il secondo capitolo è dedicato allo studio dei principi che caratterizzano il processo penale minorile introdotto con il D.p.r. 22 settembre n. 448/88. In particolare, il presente studio concentra il suo sguardo su gli istituti giuridici del proscioglimento per immaturità, della sentenza di non luogo a procedere per irrilevanza del fatto, del perdono giudiziale e dell'estinzione del reato per esito positivo della prova che, ispirati al principio della minima offensività, consentono la definizione anticipata del processo a carico dell'imputato minorenne. Questi istituti giuridici, vengono in rilievo anche perché hanno consentito l'introduzione della mediazione penale all'interno del processo. Il terzo capitolo è invece dedicato alla mediazione penale minorile. Quest'analisi parte dallo studio delle norme del D.P.R. n. 448 del 1988 che consentono di dare rilevanza giuridica al percorso di mediazione intrapreso dal minore autore del reato con la sua vittima. In particolare, si distinguono una mediazione in fase pre-processuale nell'ambito delle indagini preliminari, e una mediazione in fase processuale. È fatta poi una breve analisi di come sono costituiti gli Uffici per la mediazione penale minorile, e di come si è organizzato il personale che lavora all'interno di questi Centri.

Download or read book The Floating World written by C. Morgan Babst and published by Algonquin Books. This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Set in New Orleans, this important and powerful novel follows the Boisdoré family . . . in the months after Katrina. A profound, moving and authentically detailed picture of the storm’s emotional impact on those who lived through it.” —People In this dazzling debut about family, home, and grief, C. Morgan Babst takes readers into the heart of Hurricane Katrina and the life of a great city. As the storm is fast approaching the Louisiana coast, Cora Boisdoré refuses to leave the city. Her parents, Joe Boisdoré, an artist descended from freed slaves who became the city’s preeminent furniture makers, and his white “Uptown” wife, Dr. Tess Eshleman, are forced to evacuate without her, setting off a chain of events that leaves their marriage in shambles and Cora catatonic—the victim or perpetrator of some violence mysterious even to herself. This mystery is at the center of Babst’s haunting and profound novel. Cora’s sister, Del, returns to New Orleans from the successful life she built in New York City to find her hometown in ruins and her family deeply alienated from one another. As Del attempts to figure out what happened to her sister, she must also reckon with the racial history of the city and the trauma of a disaster that was not, in fact, some random act of God but an avoidable tragedy visited on New Orleans’s most vulnerable citizens. Separately and together, each member of the Boisdoré clan must find the strength to remake home in a city forever changed. The Floating World is the Katrina story that needed to be told—one with a piercing, unforgettable loveliness and a vivid, intimate understanding of this particular place and its tangled past.

Book The Penal Voluntary Sector

Download or read book The Penal Voluntary Sector written by Philippa Tomczak and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of the 2017 British Society of Criminology Book Prize The penal voluntary sector and the relationships between punishment and charity are more topical than ever before. In recent years in England and Wales, the sector has featured significantly in both policy rhetoric and academic commentary. Penal voluntary organisations are increasingly delivering prison and probation services under contract, and this role is set to expand. However, the diverse voluntary organisations which comprise the sector, their varied relationships with statutory agencies and the effects of such work remain very poorly understood. This book provides a wide-ranging and rigorous examination of this policy-relevant but complex and little studied area. It explores what voluntary organisations are doing with prisoners and probationers, how they manage to undertake their work, and the effects of charitable work with prisoners and probationers. The author uses original empirical research and an innovative application of actor-network theory to enable a step change in our understanding of this increasingly significant sector, and develops the policy-centric accounts produced in the last decade to illustrate how voluntary organisations can mediate the experiences of imprisonment and probation at the micro and macro levels. Demonstrating how the legacy of philanthropic work and neoliberal policy reforms over the past thirty years have created a complex three-tier penal voluntary sector of diverse organisations, this cutting-edge interdisciplinary text will be of interest to criminologists, sociologists of work and industry, and those engaged in the voluntary sector.

Book The Ethnographic Self

Download or read book The Ethnographic Self written by Amanda Coffey and published by SAGE. This book was released on 1999-05-10 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "What are the relationships between the self and fieldwork? How do personal, emotional and identity issues impact on fieldwork?" "The Ethnographic Self argues that ethnographers and others involved in research in the field should be aware of how fieldwork affects the researcher, and how the researcher affects the field. Coffey synthesizes accounts of the personal experience of ethnography, and aims to make sense of the process of fieldwork research as a set of practical, intellectual and emotional accomplishments. The book is thematically arranged and illustrated with a wide range of empirical material. The author examines the ethnographic presence in the field, and the implications of this in and beyond fieldwork, exploring issues such as the creation of the ethnographic self, and the embodiment and sexualization of the field and self." "The Ethnographic Self will be of interest to anyone working in the area of qualitative research, but especially for sociologists, and educational and health researchers."--BOOK JACKET.

Book Justice Reinvestment

Download or read book Justice Reinvestment written by David Brown and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-01-26 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Justice reinvestment was introduced as a response to mass incarceration and racial disparity in the United States in 2003. This book examines justice reinvestment from its origins, its potential as a mechanism for winding back imprisonment rates, and its portability to Australia, the United Kingdom and beyond. The authors analyze the principles and processes of justice reinvestment, including the early neighborhood focus on 'million dollar blocks'. They further scrutinize the claims of evidence-based and data-driven policy, which have been used in the practical implementation strategies featured in bipartisan legislative criminal justice system reforms. This book takes a comparative approach to justice reinvestment by examining the differences in political, legal and cultural contexts between the United States and Australia in particular. It argues for a community-driven approach, originating in vulnerable Indigenous communities with high imprisonment rates, as part of a more general movement for Indigenous democracy. While supporting a social justice approach, the book confronts significantly the problematic features of the politics of locality and community, the process of criminal justice policy transfer, and rationalist conceptions of policy. It will be essential reading for scholars, students and practitioners of criminal justice and criminal law.

Book excerpt: The astonishing development of restorative justice practice over the past decade has inspired creative new thinking about the philosophy of punishment and principles of justice. Many of the questions raised in this book – such as the relationship between restorative and retributive justice and the values and processes which should guide restorative practice – are the subject of intense debates. With contributions from many of the most distinguished scholars in the field, this book analyzes the gap between philosophy and practice and the need for practice to be more informed by philosophy. This volume is a milestone in the development of those underlying principles which will direct the progress of restorative justice in the future.
