This second edition of 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, of and about the Global South. It addresses the hegemonic bias in the production and dissemination of criminological knowledge and covers a huge scope of research methodologies and lines of inquiry to develop a transnational criminology inclusive of the experiences and perspectives of the Global South. It includes Indigenous, critical, green, southern, feminist, counter-colonial, post-colonial and de-colonial approaches. It seeks to&nbsp;contribute to the bridging of global divides and reducing inequities with the aim to democratise criminological knowledges.

This book analyses the ways in which Article 9 of the Aarhus Convention enables environmental access to justice in the Balkans, a region at the epicentre of extreme climate change events. Adopting a law-in-context approach, the chapters explore national cultures and driving forces shaping the implementation of Aarhus standards in Albania, Croatia, North Macedonia, Romania, Slovenia and Serbia, paving the way for their comparative assessment. The book combines EU law and the case law of the European Court of Human Rights with the bottom-up Europeanisation brought about by rising environmental protests and the activism of civil society organisations in the region. In doing so, it explores the extent to which these Balkan countries comply with requirements stemming from Article 9 of the Aarhus Convention, and whether, despite national differences, it is possible to talk about Europeanisation of access to justice in environmental matters. The interdisciplinary approach and geographical scope of the book make it an important read for academics and practitioners, as well as for the civil society sector and policy makers grappling with the normative and practical challenges around environmental access to justice - both in and beyond Europe.

Europeanisation of Access to Justice in Environmental Matters

Governments around the world are privatizing everything, with dramatic but largely ignored negative consequences for human rights. This open access book outlines the response that is urgently needed. Corporations are being given control over water, healthcare, housing, public transportation, child welfare services, aged care, and much else. Privatization is promoted by international financial institutions, consulting firms, and development actors as the answer to public finances devastated by the very tax cuts insistently pushed by these groups. Their pitch is based upon a mythology that extols the virtues of an idealized market while ignoring the heavy human rights costs incurred. Building on the latest evidence and on specially commissioned case studies, this book shows how the touted 'efficiency' of the private sector is often predicated on higher charges and/or reduced services, destructive employment practices, and the highly predictable exclusion of many users. Privatization generally costs states more money, marginalizes democratic decision-making, and transforms citizens from rights-holders into customers while sidelining accountability. The authors develop an approach designed to enable human rights actors, including courts, UN treaty monitoring bodies, and NGOs to move beyond their longstanding agnosticism towards privatization. It starts with a presumption that privatization is inherently retrogressive in human rights terms. Whatever mix of public and private is reflected in any given arrangement, governments must retain the degree of control necessary to ensure respect for rights, and the legal, financial and administrative ability to do so. The book charts a new direction for responding to the ever-growing threat that privatization poses to human rights.

Römer-Briefe - Es gibt kein Bier im Paradies

A riveting account of how the US criminal legal system punishes millions without conviction--asking us to rethink the freedoms we give up for the illusion of safety.Every encounter with the criminal legal system, from a traffic stop to a day in jail, carries a human cost. This cost rests on a fragile bargain at the heart of our democracy: we give the government power in exchange for protection. But how much of our liberty are we willing to surrender for the promise of safety? In Collateral Damage, attorneys Justin and Zach Brooks take readers on a devastating tour through the criminal legal system, exposing the real-life trade-offs of this false promise. Blending gripping personal stories with legal analysis, they trace the long arc of America's struggle between fear and freedom--from the Red Scare and Japanese American internment to the evolution of criminal procedure, civil forfeiture, and today's extrajudicial killings, offering pragmatic reforms along the way. The result is an eye-opening portrait of a system that punishes millions without ever sending them to prison and a powerful warning to rethink whether the balance we've struck truly reflects the values we claim to hold.

The Sociology Book

Across 12 Decades, Shaping Business IntelligenceThe marketplace is, in many ways, a modern Game of Thrones, being complex, strategic, and relentless. Beneath its surface runs a woven code. Here, merchants exchange not only products but messages, but also coded messages, and decoding them is essential for strategic and profitable business foresight.The author who decodes these messages has 38 years' international experience in business and academia, with supplementary insight shaped by twelve decades of a family enterprise.The insights of decoding are not always immediate, and occasionally, they surface only after years of patient observation and prayerful alignment. If a businessperson is not aware of the existence of these codes, how can the individual attempt to climb to the top of Mount Everest? Decoding aids us to interpret that which we fail to comprehend or even to bring adequate language to our emotions and experiences. Through a quiet signature art of 'code-as-stealth', the narrative listens beneath the noise, revealing how faith and grace carry an unseen authority capable of restoring trade. The effectiveness of stealth technology lies in the meticulous coordination of components and aerodynamic principles. A single wing - like a standalone paragraph - or even a wing and a tail - a paragraph plus a chapter - does not make a stealth aircraft. True stealth comes from the integration of all components, perfectly aligned in the correct sequence and position. The meticulous attention to sequencing and positioning in narration represents the book's use of stealth, which helps drive the momentum of both the code and the decoding process. The uniqueness of 'code-as-stealth' is that it is birthed in originality, skill and experience: Ai has no role. The book offers grounded counsel for resisting bloated systems and borrowed formulas in the marketplace, rooting enterprise instead in covenant, conscience, and calling. Here, business is reimagined, not as a field of turmoil, but as a sanctuary of grace, where foresight becomes stewardship and profit flows as a shared blessing.

Decoding the Marketplace

Judging Poverty and Inequality in Brazil offers an unprecedented empirical analysis of the judicialisation of poverty in Brazil. Anchored in the Brazilian context - a postcolonial society where structural and intersectional discrimination continues to correlate with poverty today - the book explores the complex relationship between poverty and inequality, enriching critical debates on how law can more effectively respond to material deprivation and social exclusion. Its analysis centres on the case law of two prominent courts with jurisdiction over the Brazilian State: the Brazilian Federal Supreme Court (STF) and the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (IACtHR). The book unfolds in two parts. Part I examines the theoretical interconnections between poverty and inequality, drawing on law, sociology, and political science. Part II turns to the Brazilian experience. It tracks the evolution of poverty from the promulgation of the 1988 Constitution, which marked the start of a new constitutional era in the country after more than two decades of military dictatorship, to 2023. It then analyses how the STF and the IACtHR have addressed poverty and inequality in their case law, assessing the impact of these decisions on poverty reduction and its intersectional manifestations in Brazil. Judging Poverty and Inequality in Brazil offers a compelling and critical examination of whether -and to what extent - courts can promote transformative social change and impact poverty eradication and alleviation in an unequal democracy. It is essential reading for those interested in the interplay between poverty, inequality, and the work of courts.
