Download or read book Narcoland written by Anabel Hernández and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2013-09-10 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “investigative magnum opus” offers a jaw-dropping history of Mexican drug cartels as it transports readers to the frontlines of the ‘war on drugs’ in Latin America (Los Angeles Times). “A riveting story . . . [from] an incredibly brave journalist.” —NPR The “war on drugs” has so far cost more than 60,000 lives. Hernández explains in riveting detail how Mexico became a base for the mega-cartels of Latin America and one of the most violent places on the planet. At every turn, Hernández names not just the narcos, but also the politicians, functionaries, judges, and entrepreneurs who have collaborated with them. In doing so, she reveals the mind-boggling depth of corruption in Mexico’s government and business elite. Hernández became a journalist after her father was kidnapped and killed and the police refused to investigate without a bribe. She gained national prominence in 2001 with her exposure of excess and misconduct at the presidential palace, and previous books have focused on criminality at the summit of power, under presidents Vicente Fox and Felipe Calderón. The product of 5 years’ investigative reporting—and the subject of intense national controversy—Narcoland is a publishing and political sensation in Mexico.

Download or read book The Criminalisation of Fantasy Material written by Hadeel Al-Alosi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-08-14 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book addresses the criminalisation of sexually explicit material depicting or describing fictitious characters who appear to be children. It is the first book of its kind to specifically examine the expansion of the law to include fictional representations of children, focusing on the law in Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. The author explores the potential criminalisation of comics and subgenres of manga that frequently depict childlike characters in a sexual context. Of course, the need to protect children from harm outweighs freedom of expression and the right to privacy; however, this argument is complicated by the material being purely fictional. Does prohibiting the fictional representation of minors interfere with individual freedoms? Based on a detailed socio-legal study, this book extensively analyses literature and pertinent theories of criminalisation, such as the Harm Principle, Offense Principle, and Legal Moralism. The book will be an invaluable resource for academics and students in various disciplines, including law, criminology, sociology, and psychology. It will also be of interest to fans of fantasy fiction.

Download or read book Butterfly Politics written by Catharine A. MacKinnon and published by Belknap Press. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Sometimes ideas change the world. This astonishing, miraculous, shattering, inspiring book captures the origins and the arc of the movement for sex equality. It’s a book whose time has come—always, but perhaps now more than ever.” —Cass Sunstein, coauthor of Nudge Under certain conditions, small simple actions can produce large and complex “butterfly effects.” Butterfly Politics shows how Catharine A. MacKinnon turned discrimination law into an effective tool against sexual abuse—grounding and predicting the worldwide #MeToo movement—and proposes concrete steps that could have further butterfly effects on women’s rights. Thirty years after she won the U.S. Supreme Court case establishing sexual harassment as illegal, this timely collection of her previously unpublished interventions on consent, rape, and the politics of gender equality captures in action the creative and transformative activism of an icon. “MacKinnon adapts a concept from chaos theory in which the tiny motion of a butterfly’s wings can trigger a tornado half a world away. Under the right conditions, she posits, small actions can produce major social transformations.” —New York Times “MacKinnon [is] radical, passionate, incorruptible and a beautiful literary stylist... Butterfly Politics is a devastating salvo fired in the gender wars... This book has a single overriding aim: to effect global change in the pursuit of equality.” —The Australian “Sexual Harassment of Working Women was a revelation. It showed how this anti-discrimination law—Title VII—could be used as a tool... It was the beginning of a field that didn’t exist until then.” —U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Download or read book Being Virtual written by Davey Winder and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2008-05-27 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Thanks to the Internet, it has never been so easy to become the person of your wildest dreams. Immersive 3D worlds such as Second Life and THERE.com provide an escape route from the ordinary, into a virtual world where you have the power to mould your life in any way you please. Forget about walking, wheelchair users can fly. Pensioners wipe away the pains of age, discovering youthful exuberance and making young friends once more. No wonder it has become harder than ever to honestly answer the question: who am I? In Being Virtual, Davey Winder looks at how an increasing number of us are living part-real, part-virtual lives, and how it affects who we are. He looks at the opportunities and dangers that a virtual identity offers us, how we juggle our real and online lives, and what happens when one spills over into the other... He uses his own personal experiences to bring the issues to life, and backs them up with the real-life stories of others and testimony from the experts. Along the way, he looks at some fascinating questions such as: Are you a virtual liar? What happens when our virtual and real worlds collide? Why will you talk to anyone online, but nobody on the train to work? Why do so many middle-aged men transform into teenage girls online? Is it possible to have any secrets in such a connected world? Being Virtual gives a glimpse into the future of human identity, and is a must-read for anyone who uses the Internet to enhance - or escape from - their 'ordinary' life. About the author Davey Winder has been a freelance journalist for 16 years, and is Contributing Editor of the best-selling IT magazine, PC Pro. He has picked up many awards including Technology Journalist of the Year and IT Security Journalist of the Year.

Download or read book Los delitos de pornograf a infantil written by Felipe, Bauer Bronstrup and published by J.M Bosch. This book was released on 2018-06-01 with total page 294 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Los Delitos de Pornografía Infantil conforman el llamado Derecho penal sexual, cuyas sucesivas reformas son síntoma del carácter controvertido y polémico de esta tipología delictiva, planteando complejas cuestiones tanto respecto a la forma en la que el Derecho penal debe intervenir, así como a los límites de su castigo. La alarma social ocasionada en los medios de comunicación por diversos episodios relativos a imágenes pornográficas, protagonizadas principalmente por niños o menores, ha suscitado un enconado debate a nivel político y social, que demandaba con urgencia una reforma del Código penal, cuya “eficacia” había sido puesta en tela de juicio por la opinión mayoritaria, sobre todo en lo relativo a la protección de las víctimas más desvalidas en el ámbito de la delincuencia sexual. En un trazado histórico, merece subrayarse la LO 3/1989, que representó una revolución en el ámbito de los delitos sexuales, al abandonar la anacrónica rúbrica de “Delitos contra la honestidad” por la de “Delitos contra la libertad sexual”, considerando a esta última como bien jurídico digno de tutela penal. Posteriormente, la reforma por LO 11/1999 significó una ampliación del epígrafe Título VIII, tutelando junto a la libertad sexual, la indemnidad sexual, para los casos de atentados sexuales que afectasen a menores e incapaces. Asimismo, se trata un nuevo límite para la mayoría de edad sexual, elevándose desde los doce a los trece años, para los abusos y agresiones sexuales. En esta evolución legislativa, la LO 15//2003, comportó notablemente una mejora técnica, cubriendo algunos vacíos legales, a la par de un endurecimiento punitivo, extendiendo la tipicidad al delito de corrupción de menores. De otro lado, la redacción otorgada a los delitos de abusos sexuales con menores, a partir de la LO 5/2010, 22 de junio, supuso un giro político-criminal trascendente, rompiendo con la estructura técnica de las diversas infracciones sexuales, cuya distinción se había cifrado en la modalidad de ataque a la libertad e indemnidad sexuales (violencia o intimidación).Y desde luego, si bien es cierto que la reciente modificación por LO 1/2015, acaecida en el ámbito de los delitos de pornografía infantil se debe, por un lado, a la alarma social y a la repugnancia que estos frecuentes episodios han suscitado en nuestro país, no es menos cierto que su principal justificación se fundamenta en la armonización europea, o por decirlo de otro modo, en la necesidad de atender a los compromisos internacionales suscritos por España, principalmente la transposición de la Directiva 2011/93/UE, relativa a la lucha contra los abusos sexuales y la explotación sexual de los menores y la pornografía infantil. La obra que se presenta al lector pretende dar respuesta a estos y otros interrogantes desde la perspectiva de un Derecho penal, abordando un exhaustivo estudio del delito contenido en el artículo 189 CP, comenzando con unas reflexiones político-criminales en torno a la pornografía infantil, planteándose la aguda controversia sobre la necesidad o no de su criminalización, principalmente, con relación a la pornografía simulada o virtual, desde un marco legal internacional, examinando no sólo el ámbito de las organizaciones internacionales, sino además el de la Unión Europea. En este contexto, delimita y define el concepto de pornografía infantil, tomando como referente el Derecho comparado de los Ordenamientos Italiano, brasileño, Australiano y Estadounidense.
