Elements of Crime Patterns

Queering Criminology and Criminal Justice

Bringing together cutting edge and diverse research from international and interdisciplinary perspectives, this book initiates and shapes conversations about transgender people within the criminal justice system.Ambitious and timely, the book collates research to provide detailed research-based insights into the involvement of transgender people in different types of criminal justice systems and in different parts of the world. With a focus on all parts of the system, chapters explore interactions with various criminal justice services, with a principal focus on carceral systems. In doing so, a wide variety of topics are discussed, including access to medical care and vulnerability to harassment and physical violence as well as the uses and abuses of state power. These are examined using a plethora of methods, and through the different perspectives provided by the authors, including academics, activists, and practitioners.Collating international research and enabling comparisons with and between different criminal justice systems, Transgender People Involved with Carceral Systems will be of value to academics, practitioners, human rights defenders, and policy-makers working across a wide range of disciplines and criminal justice contexts, including criminology, sociology, law, social policy, zemiology, queer theory, and transgender studies.

Transgender People Involved with Carceral Systems

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.

Palgrave Studies on Sentencing

This edited collection provides an international collection of essays addressing the most important challenge confronting courts in all jurisdictions, common and civil law: how can we restrict the use of imprisonment to avoid unnecessary human and fiscal costs? Different court systems have devised a range of approaches but few have worked. This book represents multiple jurisdictions including both civil and common law countries and includes chapters from legal scholars, philosophers and empirical researchers. This book has broad appeal, given the widespread&nbsp;interest in the use of&nbsp;custody, and the pressing need to reduce prison costs.Jakub Drápal

International Perspectives on Structuring and Restricting the Use of Imprisonment

Who Goes to Prison?

Sex offending is a multifaceted and pervasive phenomenon with far-reaching implications for victims, society, and the global community. This book examines the global and comparative perspectives on sex offending, particularly with regard to cultural variations and plurality of legal outlook that pose challenge to a global action. It offers a comprehensive exploration of the causes, prevalence, consequences, and the differential responses to sex offending across the world. With contributions from leading experts in psychology, law, sociology, and criminology, this multidisciplinary edited volume encompasses such disciplines as criminology, gender studies, law, psychology, cultural studies, and sociology. It is a compelling and timely resource for policymakers, practitioners, students, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the complex dynamics of global sex offending. Global Perspectives on Sex Offending serves as a beacon of hope in the fight against this silent epidemic, urging us to shine a light into the shadows and stand in solidarity with survivors around the world.

Routledge Studies in Organised Crime

This book brings together research and studies in the fields of organised crime and of 'green criminality' against the natural environment. By bringing the research traditions of organised crime and 'green criminology' into closer proximity and combining contributions on traditional organised crime and ecological crime in one volume, it questions the need to draw artificial dividing lines between criminological sub-disciplines. Including chapters on the illegal trade in cobalt, in stolen motor vehicles, the illegal dog market, cross- border amber trafficking, deforestation and environmental harm in the Norwegian industrial salmon farming, the book offers an important rapprochement between studies in organised crime and green criminology, and considers the operational differences between underworld and upperworld criminal economies.

Routledge Research in Legal Philosophy

This book offers an innovative perspective on the critical distinction between acts and omissions in criminal law, a distinction that runs like a defining thread through all types of criminal offenses.While any act that positively causes a prohibited harm is sufficient for a conviction, an omission that causes the very same harm warrants a conviction only when there is a legal duty to act. This fundamental distinction between acts and omissions is not just relevant to criminal law, but it is also deeply rooted in our moral thinking. Thus, it is commonly argued that the difference between acts and omissions is also applicable to the intuitive moral distinction between active euthanasia, forbidden in most countries, and passive euthanasia, permitted in many countries under certain circumstances. Hence, the significance of this book is threefold: First, it offers a comprehensive, coherent, and systematic discussion of the intersections between the philosophical-moral and the legal-criminal aspects of this fundamental topic. Second, it offers a novel rationale for the distinction between acts and omissions, based on the principle of autonomy. Finally, it demonstrates the influences of the theoretical discussion, on the most significant practical questions.This book will be of interest to researchers, academics and policy-makers working in the areas of criminal law, moral philosophy, and bioethics.
