Shimba M: Restorative Justice Circles

Restorative Justice Circles

The Basics

Queer Studies: The Basics offers a concise and accessible introduction to the foundational principles, history, and contemporary concerns of queer studies. Organised across eight themed chapters, the book traces the development of queer theory from the late 20th century to the present, while exploring key topics such as identity, health, media, sex, and temporality. It takes a multidisciplinary and intersectional approach, introducing readers to key debates, concepts, and cultural contexts that have shaped the field. The book also reflects on how queer studies has evolved in response to social change, activism, and shifting understandings of gender and sexuality, offering readers a strong foundation for further study. This book is ideal for students and newcomers to queer studies across disciplines including gender studies, media studies, sociology, and cultural studies.

Queer Studies: The Basics

A charred notebook, rescued from a long-forgotten fire, becomes an unlikely piece of evidence and catalyst to help unravel a century-old mystery.

When he was a child, the author first encountered the fragile remains of his great-grandmother Armina's notebook - an object so damaged and incomplete it seemed meaningless. Passed down through generations, its brittle, charred pages held only fragments, offering no clear story. Yet its quiet presence lingered, a puzzle waiting to be solved.

Years later, a chance discovery in the walls of a Missouri home would transform that childhood curiosity into a decades-long investigation. A hidden newspaper from 1892 revealed that Armina was not simply the kind and loving figure remembered in family lore, but the central figure in a sensational murder trial that captured national and international attention. Accused of killing her young stepdaughter and ultimately acquitted, her story had been scattered across archives and forgotten records for over a century.

Driven by the mystery of the burned notebook and the shadow it cast over his family's past, the author embarks on a meticulous reconstruction of the events surrounding that tragic day. Drawing from historical accounts, newspaper reports, and years of research, he pieces together a gripping narrative of suspicion, family conflict, and justice in Gilded Age America.

This is the story of a girl whose life was nearly erased, a crime that shocked a nation, and the enduring power of history to survive - even when the pages meant to preserve it have turned to ash.

A Voice For Evie

Inspector Lynley

A gripping Inspector Lynley mystery from the No. 1 international bestselling author. The Lynley TV series is available on iPlayer now. Amid the beauty of Cornwall's coastline, the death of a local man shatters the peace with its violence . . . The body of Michael Lobb is discovered in his family's tin and pewter workshop, and as Detective Inspector Beatrice Hannaford investigates, it emerges that Lobb was the only remaining obstacle preventing the purchase of local land by a mining company. The complexity of the case only increases as Lobb's family life, rife with mistrust and deception, comes to light. The tangled web of intrigue soon draws in Bea's colleagues, Thomas Lynley and Barbara Havers, who must search for a killer in a community that has very little trust in outsiders . . . Praise of Elizabeth George: 'An essential writer of popular fiction today' - Washington Post 'A superstar of the crime-fiction world' - Seattle Times 'She writes extremely well, plots brilliantly and reaches an emotional level deeper than most' - The Times 'She's a designer of fastidious mosaics that never fail to intrigue' - The Guardian 'Elizabeth George delivers another intelligent, intricate mystery' - New York Times 'Presses all the buttons to make us hoover her stuff up' - Daily Telegraph 'It feels like meeting old friends and that you're almost solving the crime together' - Belfast Telegraph 'Rich with descriptive detail and emotional nuance. Several alternating plot threads unspool at length, all of which weave tightly together with pleasing inevitability' - Wall Street Journal

A Slowly Dying Cause

'An unimpeachable, erudite jewel of a book on the politics of memorialisation. This beautifully written reckoning with history shines a clear light on how&nbsp;far and how tenaciously the shadows of colonialism reach into our lives in the present moment.&nbsp;A necessary and vital piece of work' Neel Mukherjee, Booker Prize shortlisted author of&nbsp;The Lives of Others

'Compulsively readable. Rather than a superficial skirmish in the culture wars, the struggle over statues is about how we live with and relate to one another, and the fight over equality and dignity in the present' Laleh Khalili, Institute of Arab and Islamic Studies, University of Exeter

'A powerfully grounded and eminently thoughtful contribution to debates around race, caste, class and historical memory. At once considered and stimulating, Rao's account of how we grapple with the imperial past and present will stay standing even as statues rise and fall over the coming decades' Priyamvada Gopal, Professor of Postcolonial Studies, University of Cambridge

Statues around the world have become lightning rods for public debates over the meaning of our imperial past and postcolonial present. The Psychic Lives of Statues is an insightful exploration of these global controversies, demonstrating that beneath their surface lie deeper struggles over race, caste and the politics of decolonisation.

Rahul Rao takes readers on an international journey, revealing how these controversies have dramatically rearranged anticolonial political thought through the multifaceted lenses of justice, cultural memory and belonging.

The Psychic Lives of Statues explores both the toppling of colonial statues and the erection of postcolonial ones, illuminating how statues remain powerful and compelling forms of memorialisation. Engaging with artists, scholars and activists, Rao offers a fresh and exciting perspective on how we understand our past and present through iconography.

Rahul Rao is a Reader in International Political Thought in the School of International Relations at the University of St Andrews, and Professorial Research Associate at SOAS University of London. He is the author of two other books - Third World Protest: Between Home and the World (2010) and Out of Time: The Queer Politics of Postcoloniality (2020). He is a member of the Radical Philosophy editorial collective.

The Psychic Lives of Statues

Studies in Penal Theory and Ethics

This book explores the connections between punishment theory and punishment practice It shines a much-needed light on the relation between how punishment is experienced by those subjected to it (and others), and the more general consideration of what justifies punishment in the first place. Leading experts in the field weigh up what is appropriate punishment - both in quantitative and in non-quantitative ways. It explains why punishment is so difficult to justify, looks at the compatibility of modes and processes of penal sanctions, and explore how best to achieve the aspiration to set reasonable terms for future coexistence through state punishment. The book addresses key topics such as life imprisonment, what is at stake when we use prisons to punish, and how criminal offenders can be successfully integrated into society. It considers how we know whether we over-punish offenders, what we should do in response to excessive punishment, and the possibility of replacing punitive systems with non-punitive ones. Overall, the book makes a groundbreaking contribution to the philosophy of punishment, explicitly connecting general, abstract questions about the moral and political justification of punishment with empirical insight into the realities and experiences of punishment practices.

Walter Nash began a journey down a dark path of seemingly no return, and now he &nbsp;finds himself questioning everything that got him there in this thrilling sequel to Nash Falls from #1&nbsp;New York Times&nbsp;bestselling author David Baldacci. Walter Nash, working under the alias of Dillon Hope, is on the road to revenge after becoming an informant for the FBI against a global criminal operation headed up by Victoria Steers. Steers has ripped everything Nash held dear away from him. He has nothing left to lose and with long, rigorous training under his belt the gentle and sensitive Nash has transformed into something he never thought he’d be: a physically imposing man with lethal skills. And now he has only goal left in life: taking down Victoria Steers. In order to succeed, he’s going to need to cross enemy lines and work the job from the inside. But Steers is shrewd and only brings those she trusts completely into her inner circle. Nash must rely on every ounce of his hard-earned skills in order to prove himself an ally to Steers if he’s ever going to get close enough to decimate her criminal empire. Yet, despite hating the woman for destroying his life, Nash finds himself oddly drawn to Steers in ways that he never could’ve imagined. And what he ultimately discovers will turn all he believed upside down, forcing Nash to do something truly unfathomable. So, will the truth set Nash free? Or end him?

VIGILANTE JUSTICE

Routledge Contemporary Issues in Criminal Justice and Procedure

This collection brings together academics, practicing lawyers and judges to offer a multidisciplinary insight into the relationship between the state and citizens through the lens of securing justice. All too often, appraisals of this fundamental subject are artificially siloed into the traditional legal topics to which they relate, such as criminal law, civil justice and constitutional rights. This volume places the relationship between citizens, the state and justice at its heart, with expertise across the legal sphere contributing to its content. It identifies common problems and challenges while readers are proffered an opportunity to explore solutions from other legal areas in order to help remedy those existing in their own.The book will be of interest to academics, researchers and policy-makers working in the areas of Constitutional Law, Human Rights Law, Criminal Justice, Policing and Criminology.

This second edition of&nbsp;The Palgrave Handbook of Criminology and the Global South&nbsp;significantly expands, develops and draws together the rapidly growing research and theory about crime, punishment, security, prisons, policing, gender violence, environmental justice, island justice and justice innovations from, in the spatial and marginal global peripheries. It challenges the hegemonic bias in the production and dissemination of criminological knowledge and covers a huge scope of original research to develop a field of criminological inquiry inclusive of the experiences of the Global South. It includes Indigenous, critical, green, southern, feminist, counter-colonial, post-colonial and de-colonial approaches. 
The handbook promotes diverse perspectives to develop concepts and theories that bridge global divides aiming to democratise criminological knowledges. It contains 86 chapters organised into eight themes and features contributions from both emerging and established scholars from around the globe. While colonialism's impacts are most visible in former colonies of the Global South, marginalised communities also exist in the Global North. The handbook, therefore, transcends geographical boundaries by incorporating theories from the margins.

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLERIn one of the most extraordinary true crime stories ever published, Broken Plea questions what really happened in the house on King Road--and the results of that investigation, still unfolding in real time, will astound you.Was there more than one killer? Had the crime scene been cleaned and sanitized before the police arrived? Was furniture staged to throw off detectives? In the aftermath of Bryan Kohberger's request to withdraw his guilty plea, there are more questions than ever before.In the early morning hours of November 13, 2022, four lives were lost in a brutal crime in Moscow, Idaho--and a nation demanded answers. When a suspect accepted a plea bargain, the story seemed settled. Justice, many believed, had been served.Broken Plea prophetically challenges that assumption.Drawing on court records, investigative timelines, witness statements, and apparently overlooked inconsistencies, this meticulously researched exposé examines how a rush to judgment may have shaped one of the most closely watched murder cases in recent memory. As the official narrative hardened, critical leads went unexplored, contradictory evidence was minimized, and alternative explanations faded from view.This book does not claim certainty where none exists. Instead, it asks the questions that were never fully pursued: What happens when pressure to close a case outweighs the search for truth? What evidence may have been sidelined, and why? And what are the consequences when a plea doesn't end scrutiny but invites it?Clear-eyed, unsparing, and deeply unsettling, Broken Plea reopens a case that never should have closed as it did--and invites readers to look again at what justice demands when the truth remains unresolved.
