"An urgent look at the relationship between the politics of guns, race, and policing in America today"--

An urgent look at the relationship between guns, the police, and race The United States is steeped in guns, gun violence—and gun debates. As arguments rage on, one issue has largely been overlooked—Americans who support gun control turn to the police as enforcers of their preferred policies, but the police themselves disproportionately support gun rights over gun control. Yet who do the police believe should get gun access? When do they pursue aggressive enforcement of gun laws? And what part does race play in all of this? Policing the Second Amendment unravels the complex relationship between the police, gun violence, and race. Rethinking the terms of the gun debate, Jennifer Carlson shows how the politics of guns cannot be understood—or changed—without considering how the racial politics of crime affect police attitudes about guns. Drawing on local and national newspapers, interviews with close to eighty police chiefs, and a rare look at gun licensing processes, Carlson explores the ways police talk about guns, and how firearms are regulated in different parts of the country. Examining how organizations such as the National Rifle Association have influenced police perspectives, she describes a troubling paradox of guns today—while color-blind laws grant civilians unprecedented rights to own, carry, and use guns, people of color face an all-too-visible system of gun criminalization. This racialized framework—undergirding who is “a good guy with a gun” versus “a bad guy with a gun”—informs and justifies how police understand and pursue public safety. Policing the Second Amendment demonstrates that the terrain of gun politics must be reevaluated if there is to be any hope of mitigating further tragedies.

Staging Systemic Violence

Jonathan M. Metzl has long been the forefront of a movement advocating for American gun reform as a matter of public health but in 2018 a racially charged mass shooting in Nashville led him on a path towards recognising the limitations of biomedical frameworks for fully diagnosing or treating the complexities of American gun politics. In What We've Become, Metzl looks at the cycle in which mass shootings lead to shock, horror, calls for action, and, ultimately, political gridlock, he explores what happens when violence is normalised as an acceptable trade-off for freedom. What We've Become points to mass shootings as a symptom of America's unresolved national conflicts, and sets out a path of alliance forging, racial reckoning and political power brokering that America must take to put things right.

Eating disorders are coping mechanisms. For some, dissolution of their nuclear family drives them into disordered eating patterns, for others grief and loss, for still others violence enacted upon them as an individual. Our current treatments help people heal their emotional wounds from such events, cultivate new beliefs about themselves and the world, and create a new relationship with food and themselves. But these methods become less effective when the violence is enacted not on the individual, but on a group as a whole. Hidden in Plain Sight is written for you if you are struggling with their relationship with food but are unsure where to turn. Written by Christyna Johnson, an eating disorder dietician, public speaker, and podcast host, this book covers the common ways an eating disorder presents for Black folks, why popular therapies don't address the root of your eating problems, and how you can finally to heal.

Neue Bibliothek der Sozialwissenschaften

Die Gesellschaft kann nur unter den sehr beschränkten Bedingungen ihrer eigenen Kommunikationsmöglichkeiten auf Umweltprobleme reagieren. Das gilt auch für Umweltprobleme, die sie selbst ausgelöst hat. Ökologische Kommunikation kann sich daher nur nach Maßgabe der wichtigsten Funktionssysteme wie Politik, Recht, Wirtschaft, Wissenschaft, Erziehung, Religion entwickeln – oder im Protest gegen diese Systeme. In beiden Fällen besteht die doppelte Gefahr von zu wenig und zu viel Resonanz.Der AutorNiklas Luhmann (1927-1998) war zuletzt Professor für Soziologie an der Universität Bielefeld.

Dieses Buch bietet eine kompakte (und wahrscheinlich die verständlichste) Zusammenfassung der Systemtheorie. Dabei wird die Frage nach den ökologischen Risiken der modernen Gesellschaft beantwortet.

Kann die moderne Gesellschaft sich auf ökologische Gefährdungen einstellen?

Psychology, Crime and Law

This book deals with advanced issues relating to the empirical and scientific study, development and evaluation of offender profiling as an applied method for use in police investigations of homicide. It outlines the main psychological principles upon which offender profiling is based, including classification of criminal behaviour and behavioural change and consistency. The book builds on this by focussing on methodological questions relating to classifying crime scene behaviours related to homicide, linking crime scene behavioural types to offender characteristics, and linking serial homicide offences. Thoroughout the book the author is concerned to demystify erroneous ideas of what profiling is, to explain what it can offer to homicide research and investigations and to map out where the future lies in terms of key theoretical questions and practical research.
