Anthem Studies in Law Reform

Anthem Series on Women and Criminal Justice

We need a new law of rape -. One one which puts the focus on the defendant, rather than the victim. Many survivors of rape report that their experience of the criminal courts is that they are on trial. This book argues we need to redefine rape so the focus is on the defendant and his responsibility.

The Responsibilities of Penetration

Shifting the Spotlight in the Law of Rape

A stunning novel from&nbsp;the acclaimed young Irish poet&nbsp;Seán Hewitt, a luminous and intensely evocative portrayal of&nbsp;two teeneagers bonding with each other over one heady, transformative year. "[Open, Heaven]&nbsp;is a searching novel orbiting pleasure, loss, and the ecstatic release of both; which is to say it’s a novel about time. Which is to say it’s a novel about us."&nbsp;—Kaveh Akbar, author of Martyr! Set in a remote village in the north of England, Open, Heaven unfolds over the course of one year in which two teenage boys meet and transform each other’s lives. James—a sheltered, shy sixteen-year-old—is alone in his newly discovered sexuality, full of an unruly desire but entirely inexperienced. As he is beginning to understand himself and his longings, he also realizes how his feelings threaten to separate him from his family and the rural community he has grown up in. He dreams of another life, fantasizing about what lies beyond the village’s leaf-ribboned boundaries, beyond his reach: autonomy, tenderness, sex. Then, in the autumn of 2002, he meets Luke, a slightly older boy, handsome, unkempt, who comes with a reputation for danger. Abandoned by his parents—his father imprisoned, and his mother having moved to France for another man—Luke has been sent to live with his aunt and uncle on their farm just outside the village. James is immediately drawn to him "like the pull a fire makes on the air, dragging things into it and blazing them into its hot, white centre," drawn to this boy&nbsp;who is beautiful and impulsive, charismatic, troubled. But underneath Luke’s bravado is a deep wound—a longing for the love of his father and for the stability of family life. Open, Heaven is a novel about desire, yearning, and the terror of first love. With the striking economy and lyricism that animate his work as a poet, Hewitt has written a mesmerizing hymn to boyhood, sensuality, and love in all its forms. A truly exceptional debut.

'Excellent, meticulously researched biography' - The Guardian 'Katie Prescott's account could hardly be bettered' - Literary Review 'My book of the year' - Martin Vander Weyer, The Spectator 'A highly readable book' - Financial Times Named one of the Times and Sunday Times 'Best Books of 2025' A maverick outsider. An improbable life. An even more improbable death. Discover the real story of Mike Lynch, Britain's enigmatic billionaire. On the morning of 19th August 2024, the Bayesian yacht tragically sank off the coast of Sicily, taking with it the lives of Mike Lynch, his daughter and five others. Hours earlier, Lynch's associate and co-defendant in one of the biggest fraud cases in Silicon Valley history, Stephen Chamberlain, was hit by a car in Cambridge and killed. The odds of these two deaths occurring together were estimated at four in one billion. Drawing on extensive research and exclusive access to key sources, award-winning Times journalist Katie Prescott forensically explores the life and death of this elusive maverick. Prescott guides us from Lynch's humble beginnings, through his meteoric rise to CEO of Autonomy, and beyond to a vicious legal battle lasting more than a decade following the 2011 sale of Autonomy to Hewlett-Packard for more than £11bn. A truly brilliant feat of investigative reporting, this is a tale where nothing is quite as it appears. 'Totally gripping . . . A real-life story that reads like a novel' - Sathnam Sanghera, bestselling author of Empireland 'There is an old saying that most journalists have a bad book in them . . . Katie Prescott isn't one of them. If this was a film script no one would believe it' - Kamal Ahmed, journalist and author of Life and Times of a Very British Man 'A meticulously researched glimpse into the dark side of tech business in the UK . . . Riveting' - Parmy Olson, bestselling author of Supremacy

This book presents a philosophical and legal inquiry into the sort of creatures we are, and so how to live well and behave well, and an indictment of the failure of the Academy to address these foundational questions.

'Glitters with menace' LUCY ROSE'Visceral and affecting' EMMA VAN STRAATEN'Hypnotic and deeply unsettling... both tender and terrifying'CELIA SILVANI'Utterly unique, experimental and, simultaneously, a page-turner with the sly, creeping pace of a horror film' HEATHER O'NEILLAn extraordinary literary horror debut from a rising star.My eyes snapped open and I saw something else in the mirror, something else that wasn't me...In the wake of an ill-omened romance with a horror cinephile, Brooke arrives in Vancouver to care for her sister, Izzy, who is facing reproductive surgery. But Izzy's rapidly decaying apartment building, its hallways stalked by an ominous crone known only as Medusa, offers little refuge to the sisters.Seeking solace in the films her ex-girlfriend loved, Brooke soon finds traces of horror bleeding from the screen into her life. Old wounds reopen and new frictions surface, and when Brooke begins to exhibit strange symptoms of her own, Izzy's concern spirals into obsession. The line between self and sister blurs until only one question remains: who, or what, will survive when all unravels?Through the dual lenses of art and horror cinema, Emma Cleary brilliantly dissects loneliness, motherhood and the body's threatened autonomy. Eerie and threaded with yearning, Our Monstrous Bodies is a haunting literary debut that blooms with the dark desires we suppress or to which we surrender.

Was ist Eigenverantwortung? In der öffentlichen Debatte um Eigenverantwortung im Gesundheitswesen wird darunter häufig das Einhalten von festgelegten Handlungsregeln verstanden. Aufgrund dieser ausschließlich rhetorischen Anwendung, die jedoch keine Klärung von Eigenverantwortung liefert, bedarf es einer Definitionsüberprüfung des Eigenverantwortungsbegriffs. Dabei wird deutlich, dass Eigenverantwortung keine Einforderung von Verhaltensweisen meinen kann, da dies die Ebene der Eigenverantwortung verlässt. Vielmehr beschreibt Eigenverantwortung den personalen Zustand der autonomen Gründedeliberation, wodurch unter anderem ein gerechtfertigter Paternalismus identifiziert werden kann, indem sich Fürsorge- und Autonomieprinzip aufgrund des Zugeständnisses eigenverantwortlicher Handlungen nicht ausschließen müssen.
