Oñati International Series in Law and Society

Does parole have a future? If it does, can we begin to imagine a different path? Is progressive penal reform possible, or has the time come to consider more radical alternatives in a context where there is little, if any, consensus on the underlying aims and techniques of contemporary prison release? What does this all mean for the prisoners, families, victims and publics upon whose confidence the parole system ultimately depends? This book brings together a world-leading panel of 27 experts who draw upon insights from law, sociology, criminology and political science to explore these pressing questions. At a time when many parole systems are experiencing considerable strain, the aims of this collection are twofold: first, to encourage systematic and critical reflection on the rationalities, institutions and practices of parole. Second, to think big, and pose ambitious 'what if' questions about the possible futures of parole and prison release. Offering novel insights from Asia, Australia, Europe, North America and South America, this collection builds the case for, and then showcases, a 'way of doing' parole research that is global in outlook, interdisciplinary in approach and unapologetically normative in character.

Your Individual Empire

From a Fortune 100 HR Executive turned trusted workplace voice, a grounded, no-nonsense guide for anyone who’s tired of trying to make work “work” and ready to build a career they don’t have to recover from. At some point, work stopped working for you and you knew it before you could explain it. Maybe it started as exhaustion. Or constant second-guessing. Or the realization that no matter how hard you worked, something still felt off. So you told yourself it was normal. That this is just how work is. That you should be able to handle it. But what if the problem isn’t you? With more than two decades working in HR, Leigh Elena Henderson has had a front-row seat to how workplaces shape and quietly damage people’s lives. She’s coached leaders, supported employees at every level, and built a global following by saying what most people feel but won’t say out loud. In Workable, she introduces a clear, practical framework for moving out of survival mode and into a career that actually works for you: Vision helps you reconnect with who you are–your values, strengths, and what you actually want from your work–so that you can stop making decisions from burnout and start making them from clarity. Transition shows you how to move forward intentionally, whether that means leaving, shifting, or redefining your current role without creating more chaos in the process. Transformation is where the real shift happens–learning how to trust yourself again, protect your energy, and build a career that stays sustainable over time no matter what lies ahead. Through candid stories, honest insight, and approachable coaching, Leigh encourages you to move past unhealthy work environments and the toxic bosses that create them to redefine success on your own terms. Workable has everything you need to help you stop confusing endurance with success and leave what isn’t working for you: Drawn from Real-Life Experiences: Grounded in Leigh’s personal experience, as well as her work with clients, corporate leaders, and a global audience, these stories reflect what people are actually navigating at work. A Practical Framework: The three-phase Workable Model–Vision, Transition, and Transformation–helps you clarify what you want, move forward intentionally, and build a career that stays aligned over time. Actionable Guidance: From scripts to practical insight, Workable offers tools you can use immediately–so you’re not just thinking differently about work, you’re navigating it differently, too. For Anyone Ready for Something Different: Whether you’re an employee, leader, or coach, Workable meets you where you are and helps you build a career that fits your life, not one you have to recover from.

Das auf mehrere Bande angelegte Werk prasentiert nahezu das gesamte deutsche Verfassungsrecht des Zeitraumes zwischen 1806 und 1918. Hiermit wird der sich gleichsam schrittweise vollziehende Ubergang von einem traditionell standischen oder gar furstlich-absolutistischen zu einem zumeist monarchisch-konstitutionellen System aufgearbeitet, dessen jaher Untergang schlielich in die nationalstaatlich-republikanisch gepragte demokratisch-parlamentarische Staatsform Weimars mundet. Mit dem Gesamtwerk steht dem Fachpublikum eine leicht zugangliche, bislang nicht gekannte Fulle von Dokumenten zur Verfugung, die fur die verfassungsrechtliche Entwicklung Deutschlands und seiner einzelnen Staaten von zentraler Bedeutung waren. Dabei wird groer Wert auf die authentische, d. h. buchstaben- und zeichengetreue Ubernahme der Texte gelegt. Dem jeweiligen Dokumententeil sind in jedem Band "Historische Einfuhrungen" vorangestellt. In diesem Rahmen werden an den einschlagigen Dokumenten orientierte (verfassungs-) rechtliche, zeitlich wie territorial ubergreifende entwicklungsgeschichtliche Darstellungen vorgenommen. In dem hier vorliegenden 3. Band werden erstmals uber 450 Verfassungsdokumente prasentiert, welche fur die verfassungsstaatliche Entwicklung des Groherzogtums Berg und des Herzogtums Braunschweig pragend waren. Begleitet wird diese Textedition durch eine ausfuhrliche historische Einfuhrung.

Deutsches Verfassungsrecht 1806 - 1918

In a movement-defining book, the "godmother of the current moment of dissatisfaction with establishment politics" (The New York Times) tells the story of the rising anti-monopoly movement and charts a course to a democratic future In a short, sharp political book, The Nation magazine's "Anti-Monopolist" columnist and "a prophet of the resurgent left" (Franklin Foer) explains the battle between the forces of oligarchy and the rise of the new anti-monopoly movement. Using the stories of modern anti-monopoly heroes including Federal Trade Commission Chair Lina Khan; blueberry farmer Hugh Kent, who turned his battle with Driscoll's into a farmers' movement; and Doha Mekki, the daughter of a Sudanese asylum seeker who took on Google and won; Teachout explains how anti-monopoly cuts across traditional political lines and gives real teeth to economic populism.Teachout, a scholar of the law of democracy and a politician whose run for governor of New York State shocked the political establishment, argues that monopoly is the architecture of private tyranny, and that breaking corporate power is essential to building a new democracy. From AI to agriculture, healthcare to energy, Americans understand that corporate concentration doesn't just cause inequality; it organizes power. Anti-Monopoly gives that feeling a name, a history, and a way forward. After a spate of books out of the Abundance movement arguing that we need to remove local democracy and focus on efficiency at scale, this book provides a sharp counterpoint.

Anti-Monopoly

To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge premium prices to thousands of eager subscribers. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes by analysing the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button. Useful reading for the general reader and for students and researchers involved with business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.

Traditionally, the presence of pornography in American society has been mediated by two primary factors: legal restrictions and the relatively high cost of the product. The degree of legal restrictions on adult material has varied from era to era and community to community, but the porn premium has remained relatively constant. Given this, these should be heady days for adult business owners. Thanks to the Internet, distribution costs are virtually nil and even the most hardcore content is easily accessible in the smallest coastal hamlet and most rural farmhouse in America. Adult industry balance sheets should be bulging with profit. But in reality, far from it. The World Wide Web has completely eradicated both the legal restrictions and premium cost that used to govern adult industry economics. To paraphrase Sir Winston Churchill, never has so much pornography been available to so many people for so little. This is the story of how the online adult industry has plummeted from its lofty heights of the late 1990s, when a savvy Web entrepreneur could charge thousands of eager subscribers premium prices. It is also the story of how the law has completely failed to keep pace with the technological innovations that boosted and then savaged the online adult industry. It concludes with a detailed analysis of the social impact of virtually unlimited pornography of every description, available to all ages at the click of a button.Accessible to the general reader, this book will appeal to those who want to know more about the adult entertainment industry in America and will prove useful reading for students and researchers involved with a wide variety of academic disciplines including business strategy, the history of technology, cultural studies, sexuality, media studies and technology more generally.
