Download or read book Social Exclusion and the Criminal Justice System written by Elisa García-España and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-06-03 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents the results of the latest in a long-running research project using the RIMES instrument, developed by scholars in Spain. Here, RIMES is used to measure the extent of social exclusion resulting from the penal system in comparative perspective. The volume shows the results of the application of the instrument in seven criminal justice systems: Germany, Italy, Spain, Poland, England and Wales, California, and New York. Divided into two parts, the first provides a general overview of the RIMES instrument, including a discussion of the theoretical model and the methodology. The second part focuses on the results of the application of RIMES in the seven jurisdictions. The comparative results are organised according to the nine dimensions included in the RIMES instrument: control of public spaces; legal safeguards; sentencing and sanctions systems; harshest penalties; prison rules; preventive intervention; legal and social status of offenders and ex-offenders; police and criminal records; and youth criminal justice. The last chapter summarizes the comparative results and ranks them in terms of the findings on social exclusion. The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of Comparative Criminal Justice, Criminology, Criminal Law and Policy.

Download or read book Consumicidio written by Josep Mª Galí and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2013-11 with total page 351 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La conclusion de este trabajo de critica social es que las conductas de consumo en las sociedades de economia capitalista tienen su origen en un caracter social inconsciente y colectivo. Este caracter es el nucleo central de un sistema basado en una estimulacion sistemica del consumo, que conduce a la humanidad hacia una crisis global de sostenibilidad. Esta crisis tendra una gravedad dificil de imaginar, y pondra en jaque nuestro progreso y el bienestar a nivel global. La via mas eficaz para prevenir y amortiguar sus efectos es la desactivacion acelerada del caracter consumista. Esta desactivacion pasa por impulsar con fuerza procesos emergentes de cambio, en el ambito de la ciudadania, de la politica y de la gestion empresarial, cambios que ayudaran a conducir a la sociedad por la via de la liberacion de la alienacion consumista y a devolver a las personas no solo su condicion de ciudadanos eticos, sino tambien el poder politico que el sistema ha puesto en manos de las empresas y los mercados.
