Book Description:

A Penchant for Prejudice combines a detailed empirical study of the decision-making practices of judges with a sophisticated theoretical argument which exposes contemporary myths about judging and suggests methods of incorporating the inevitable bias that is detected in this and other studies. Based on a unique study of the decisions of Social Security judges, the book challenges the meaning of judicial impartiality. Linda G. Mills finds that, in practice, bias is a consistent dimension of what is considered "impartial" decision-making. The results reveal that impartiality as the legal system now defines it, is itself a form of bias, and that a historically and contextually sensitive definition of bias, one which takes account of the communities and cultures that come to be judged in the legal system, must overcome the modern dualistic notion of imparitality as the exclusion of bias in order to respond to needs of the diversity of applicants and the judges who adjudicate their claims. According to Mills, the judicial bias she found reflected in her study seems not only to essentialize and stereotype applicants but also prevents judges from engaging vulnerable claimants in a way that the legal process positively demands.A Penchant for Prejudice will be of interest to students and scholars of law, judicial decisionmaking, and discrimination.Linda G. Mills is Assistant Professor of Social Welfare and Law, University of California, Los Angeles.

Book Description:

What is the influence of family and kinship networks on fertility, marriage, migration and mortality? Population scientists have studied the relationship between families, both immediate and extended, and demographic behavior for many years. This volume highlights the convergence of research by a group of demographers, economic historians, historians, anthropologists, sociologists and geneticists. The contributors use longitudinal databases from different cultures to study families that existed in the past and focus on the role that families and kin groups played in both early and later life events.
This book examines the role of kinship and the familys influence on the health outcomes of their children, their childrens selection of marriage partners, couples having higher order births or reduced fertility, individual migration and origins of populations. Mortality patterns are examined to determine the influence of fertility patterns on parents mortality, the contribution of parents longevity to their childrens lifespan, and whether a family history of disease affects the risk of dying from that same disease.
This volume emphasizes the importance of studies that include and compare other factors related to social organization with information on multi-generational families. The authors elucidate previous explanations and provide provocative new results. Such intergenerational research is crucial in understanding long term demographic trends and processes.

Central Issues in Criminal Theory

By William Wilson

---

Publisher: Hart Pub
Number Of Pages: 288
Publication Date: 2002-12
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1841130621
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781841130620
Binding: Paperback

---

Book Description:
Coercive rules and their implementation are, in liberal democratic societies at least, subject to ethical constraints. The state's moral authority requires these constraints to be both cogent and effectively realised in doctrine. In short, the enterprise of subjecting individuals to coercive rules must be consistent with the delivery of criminal justice. Contemporary criminal theory is much exercised by the apparent contradictions and ambiguities characterising criminal law doctrine. Is this an inevitable part of the territory leading us to question the very possibility of criminal law delivering justice? Or, as the author prefers, is criminal justice an achievement in which one of the tasks of criminal theory is to set goals and identify deficiencies in a constant effort to improve the form and content of rules and procedures?

New Visions of Crime Victims

By Carolyn Hoyle, Richard Young

---

Publisher: Hart Publishing
Number Of Pages: 256
Publication Date: 2002-08-02
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1841132802
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781841132808
Binding: Hardcover

---

Book Description:
This innovative collection presents original theoretical analyses and previously unpublished empirical research on criminal victimisation. Following an overview of the development and deficiencies of victimology, subsequent chapters present more detailed challenges to stereotypical conceptions of victimisation through their focus on: male victims of domestic violence; victims of male-on-male rape; corporate victims; and the 'victim-offenders' who are the recipients of IRA punishment beatings. The second half of the book considers criminal justice responses to victimisation, focusing in particular on the potential of, and limits to, restorative justice, the social (and gendered) construction of the victim within contested trials and the exclusionary nature of current 'victim-centred' initiatives. This important book will further the debate on how we conceptualise victims as well as their appropriate role within the criminal justice system.

Gender, Culture And Human Rights: Reclaiming Universalism (Human Rights Law in Perspective)

ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781841135137
Binding: Hardcover

Book Description:
In recent years, feminist theory has increasingly defined itself in opposition to universalism and to discourses of human rights. Rejecting the troubled legacies of Enlightenment thinking, feminists have questioned the very premises upon which the international human rights movement is based. Rather than abandoning human rights discourse, however, this book argues that feminism should reclaim the universal and reconstruct the theory and practice of human rights. Discourse ethics and its post-metaphysical defence of universalism is offered as a key to this process of reconstruction. The implications of discourse ethics and the possibility of reclaiming universalism are explored in the context of the reservations debate in international human rights law and further examined in debates on women's human rights arising in Ireland, India and Pakistan. Each of these states shares a common constitutional heritage and, in each, religious-cultural claims, intertwined with processes of nation-building, have constrained the pursuit of gender equality. Ultimately, this book argues in favour of a dual-track approach to cultural conflicts, combining legal regulation with an ongoing moral-political dialogue on the scope and content of human rights.

The Explanation of Crime: Context, Mechanisms and Development (Pathways in Crime)

Binding: Hardcover

Book Description:
Integration of disciplines, theories and research orientations has assumed a central role in criminological discourse yet it remains difficult to identify any concrete discoveries or significant breakthroughs for which integration has been responsible. Concentrating on three key concepts: context, mechanisms, and development, this volume aims to advance integrated scientific knowledge on crime causation by bringing together different scholarly approaches. Through an analysis of the roles of behavioural contexts and individual differences in crime causation, The Explanation of Crime seeks to provide a unified and focused approach to the integration of knowledge. Chapter topics range from individual genetics to family environments and from ecological behaviour settings to the macro-level context of communities and social systems. This is a comprehensive treatment of the problem of crime causation which will appeal to graduate students and researchers in criminology and be of great interest to policy-makers and practitioners in crime policy and prevention.

Rethinking Law, Society and Governance: Foucault's Bequest (Onati International Series in Law and Society) By Gary Wickham, George Pavlich Publisher: Hart Pub Number Of Pages: 256 Publication Date: 2001-12 ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1841132942 ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781841132945 Binding: Paperback Book Description: This set of essays engages with some aspects of Foucault's notion of governmentality, particularly at the junction where law/regulation meets `the social'. `The social', as a special sphere of government, is a special area of concern for those working within broad intellectual spaces of the `governmentality approach'. Is it the basis of modern liberal systems of government? Is it dead, or even feeling unwell? Has it spawned hybrid forms of government like neo-liberalism, neo-conservatism, or even neo-socialism? http://rapidshare.com/files/91555772/WicRLSG942.rar http://www.filefactory.com/file/7f739c/ file:///C:/Documents%20and%20Settings/libz/My%20Documents/My%20Pictures/0.jpg

Law and Irresponsibility: On the Legitimation of Human Suffering

By Scott Veitch

Publisher: Routledge Cavendish
Number Of Pages: 157
Publication Date: 2007-12-13
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0415442508
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780415442503
Binding: Hardcover

---

Book Description:

It is commonly understood that in its focus on rights and obligations law is centrally concerned with organising responsibility. In defining how obligations are created, in contract or property law, say, or imposed, as in tort, public, or criminal law, law and legal institutions are usually seen as societys key mode of asserting and defining the content and scope of responsibilities.

This book takes the converse view: legal institutions are centrally involved in organising irresponsibility. Particularly with respect to the production of large-scale harms including extensive human rights violations, forms of colonialism, or environmental or nuclear devastation and in opposition to conventional understandings of responsibility in law, morality and politics, the book provides a detailed analysis of the ways in which legal institutions their practices, concepts, and categories themselves operate as much to deflect responsibility for harms suffered as they do to acknowledge them.

Drawing on a series of case studies from local, national, and global concerns the book analyses how law facilitates dispersals and disavowals of responsibility, and it shows how it does so in consistent and patterned ways. In assessing how this organised irresponsibility operates, and what its consequences are for both legal analysis and society generally, a thoroughgoing re-evaluation of laws methods, operation, and consequences is required. At stake is nothing less than a fundamental re-assessment of the role of modern law in the production and legitimation of human suffering.

This innovative and interdisciplinary book provides a sustained challenge to conventional thinking about law and legal institutions. It will be of major interest to those working in law, political and legal theory, sociology and moral philosophy.

Child Abuse, Gender and Society (Routledge Research in Gender and Society)

Book Description:

Traditionally child sexual abuse has been perceived as a male crime, however, recent research suggests that a significant minority of offenders are female. While recognizing the importance of male perpetrators, this groundbreaking book places the behavior of these offending women into social context, challenging conventional perceptions of female offenders, femininity, and mothering. Including case studies and responses from professionals in the field, this key text highlights the problems inherent in protecting children and identifies ways in which we can develop a clearer understanding of the social processes involved through an analysis of the denial and minimisation used by female perpetrators. It offers a critical understanding of the notions of harm, the rights of the child, and professional practice while defining some of the limitations and possibilities of a feminist analysis of child sexual abuse by women.

Power, Conflict and Criminalisation

Publisher: Routledge
Number Of Pages: 265

ISBN-10 / ASIN: 0415422418
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9780415422413
Binding: Paperback

---

Book Description:

Drawing on a body of empirical, qualitative work spanning three decades, this unique text traces the significance of critical social research and critical analyses in understanding some of the most significant and controversial issues in contemporary society. Focusing on central debates in the UK and Ireland prison protests; inner-city uprisings; deaths in custody; womens imprisonment; transition in the north of Ireland; the crisis in childhood; the Hillsborough and Dunblane tragedies; and the war on terror Phil Scraton argues that marginalisation and criminalisation are social forces central to the application of state power and authority. Each case study demonstrates how structural relations of power, authority and legitimacy, establish the determining contexts of everyday life, social interaction and individual opportunity.
This book explores the politics and ethics of critical social research, making a persuasive case for the application of critical theory to analysing the rule of law, its enforcement and the administration of criminal justice. It is indispensable for students in the fields of criminology, criminal justice and socio-legal studies, social policy and social work.

Hypercrime: A Geometry of Virtual Harm (UCL)

By Michael McGuire

---

Publisher: Routledge Cavendish
Number Of Pages: 375
Publication Date: 2007-12-22
ISBN-10 / ASIN: 1904385532
ISBN-13 / EAN: 9781904385530
Binding: Paperback

---

Book Description:

Hypercrime develops a new theoretical approach toward current reformulations in criminal behaviours, in particular the phenomenon of cybercrime. Emphasizing a spatialized conception of deviance, one that clarifies the continuities between crime in the traditional, physical context and developing spaces of interaction such as a 'cyberspace', the book analyzes criminal behaviours in terms of the destructions, degradations or incursions to a hierarchy of regions that define our social world.
Each chapter outlines violations to the boundaries of each of these spaces - from those defined by our bodies or our property, to the more subtle borders of the local and global spaces we inhabit. By treating cybercrime as but one instance of various possible criminal virtualities, the book develops a general theoretical framework, as equally applicable to the, as yet unrealized, technologies of criminal behaviour of the next century, as it is to those which relate to contemporary computer networks. Cybercrime is thereby conceptualized as one of a variety of geometries of harm, merely the latest of many that have extended opportunities for illicit gain in the physical world.
Hypercrime offers a radical critique of the narrow conceptions of cybercrime offered by current justice systems and challenges the governing presumptions about the nature of the threat posed by it.

Book Description:

Issues in bioethics often turn, at least in part, on the law and regulatory requirements. Consisting of chapters that address particular bioethics topics from the laws perspective, this fascinating book includes:

[li]an introduction to the American legal system [/li][li]papers identifying the principal ways in which the law influences discussions and decisions concerning each of the topics highlighted [/li][li]supplemental papers on certain areas that address the influence and status of the law in countries other than the United States.[/li]

Covering traditional topics in bioethics, such as determinations of death and health care decisions for vulnerable groups, the text also explores emerging areas such as conflicts of interest in research, genetics, and privacy and confidentiality in the electronic age.
Incisive and thought-provoking, this volume provides readers with a rich context for understanding the intersection between the law on bioethicsand the central issues in bioethics.
