Book excerpt: Lynch condemns the sloppy, fearful thinking that has converted affirmative action into quotas and that has kept social researchers shying away from this explosive topic. Shulamit Reinharz Choice There is nothing quite like Frederick Lynch's book which describes how affirmative action works in real life, and points to some very disturbing effects. This is a subject that should be discussed not only in the Supreme Court and Lynch makes an important contribution to that discussion. Nathan Glazer, Harvard University More and more questions have surfaced in the past decade concerning the wisdom and fairness of affirmative action programs. In this book, Lynch takes a hard look at affirmative action policy development and the social and ethical implications of a system that promotes gender and race as criteria for vocational advancement and educational opportunity. He focuses on the experiences of white males who have been victims of reverse discrimination under such programs and explores the lackluster response from government, the media, and employing institutions. Lynch examines the political taboo that for two decades effectively stifled discussion of the issues that affirmative action raises in both public discourse and scholarly analysis. He reviews the original ideals and purposes of affirmative action and contrasts them with the program as it has actually operated in everyday work settings. In case studies based on interviews and other data, Lynch assesses the reactions of white males to affirmative action social barriers, as well as their impact on co-workers, friends, and relatives. He describes the role of the mass media, the social sciences, and ideological elites in creating a conspiracy of silence concerning the hidden and unintended consequences of affirmative action policies. The only study that deals specifically with the impact of affirmative action on white males, this book is a must read for anyone who is truly interested in understanding the sociological, political, and psychological complexities of this issue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Despite Western society's preoccupation with safety and protection, its most vulnerable members still lack access to the level of security that many of us take for granted. In this trailblazing study, Laura Huey illustrates the issue of a 'security gap' faced by increasing homeless populations: while they are among the most likely victims of crime, they are also among the least served by existing forms of state and private security. Invisible Victims presents the first comprehensive, integrated study of the risks faced by homeless people and their attempts to find safety and security in often dangerous environments. Huey draws not only on current debates on security within criminology, but also on a decade's worth of her own field research on the victimization and policing of the homeless. A theoretically and empirically informed examination of the myriad issues affecting the homeless, Invisible Victims makes a compelling case for society to provide necessary services and, above all, a basic level of security for this population.

Book excerpt: In Invisible Slaves, W. Kurt Hauser discusses slavery around the world, with research and firsthand stories that reframe slavery as a modern-day crisis, not a historical phenomenon or third-world issue. Identifying four types of slavery—chattel slavery, debt bondage, forced labor, and sex slavery—he examines the efforts and failures of governments to address them. He explores the political, economic, geographic, and cultural factors that shape slavery today, illustrating the tragic human toll with individual stories. Country by country, the author illuminates the harsh realities of modern-day slavery. He explores slavery's effects on victims, including violence, isolation, humiliation, and the master-slave relationship, and discusses the methods traffickers use to lure the vulnerable, especially children, into slavery. He assesses nations based on their levels of slavery and efforts to combat the problem, citing the rankings of the United States' Trafficking Victims Protection Act. He concludes with an appeal to governments and ordinary citizens alike to meet this humanitarian crisis with awareness and action.

This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 474 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Victims of crime may experience a wide variety of traumas that result in physical, sexual, financial, psychological, emotional, and/or social consequences. While the types of trauma can vary greatly and include lesser-known forms such as vicarious and secondary trauma, identifying and recognizing victims can be complicated. Throughout this book, experts and professionals from academia and the fields of criminal justice, social work, and mental health acknowledge victims historically overlooked by society, political movements, the media, and/or the criminal justice system - we acknowledge the invisible victims. Invisible Victims and the Pursuit of Justice: Analyzing Frequently Victimized Yet Rarely Discussed Populations pioneers the assertion that our view of victims needs to be more inclusive by exploring invisible victims that are rarely, if ever, a focus of discussions in traditional victimology textbooks. To educate the reader and begin working toward positive change, each chapter identifies an invisible victim and provides the background, controversies, issues, solutions, and areas of future research. It is crucial to identify these gaps in the field as some of the most victimized populations remain absent from important dialogue on crime victims. This book is appropriate for a wide range of readership including but not limited to criminologists, victim service providers, psychologists, sociologists, social workers, advocate groups, law enforcement, lawyers, defense attorneys, criminal justice practitioners, academicians, researchers, and students studying criminology, criminal justice, victimology, social work, psychology, and social justice.

This book was released on 2016-07-10 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Indigenous women and girls are more likely to suffer extreme violence than other women. They are more likely to disappear and never be seen again. And sadly, they are more likely to be murdered by a serial killer. For decades, it has been Canada's dirty little secret. Then in 2014, the horrific murders of Loretta Saunders and Tina Fontaine made headlines across Canada, ignited widespread outrage and exposed Canada's national shame. So why is the level of violence towards Indigenous women reaching crisis levels? Centuries of discrimination, long term effects of the dreadful residential school era, and many other appalling government-approved practices have resulted in widespread racism towards Indigenous people. Attempts at genocide didn't cease centuries ago like many believe. They just became more subtle. Invisible Victims is a shocking work that shines a spotlight on the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women tragedy in Canada, its root causes and several cases. It also includes serial killers who specifically targeted Indigenous women as victims, as a direct result of indifference on the part of Canada's law enforcement, media and government.

Book excerpt: Sadly, we hear news of suicide attacks, bombings and shootings almost on a daily basis. The media further bombards us with images of these attacks via live broadcasts on TV and streaming over the Internet. But there is much more to these tragedies that lies outside the camera lens and news broadcasts. What about the shadow participants? What happens to the families, friends and loved ones who are indirectly the victims who also have to deal with the fallout of these tragedies? What about the co-workers that must pick themselves up, physically and emotionally, a few hours after being exposed to a tragedy to fulfill their jobs, especially when nothing but their best effort or service is expected from them in the immediate aftermath?On December 2, 2015, when Alicia Cuello lived through the danger and psychological trauma that became known as the San Bernardino Shooting, the harsh reality of the challenges associated with surviving a tragedy affected her personally and professionally. With a demanding boss, and clients expecting their business needs to be met, Alicia was forced to navigate the delicate balance between managing the daily pressures of her job and regaining her mental health after being emotionally devastated by a horrific workplace shooting. What do employees do following a tragedy? Do you pretend to be alright or can the emotional trauma be too much for anyone to bear? What about co-workers, managers and clients: What can they expect? Should we, and how can we, manage their expectations even though they weren't in San Bernardino that day?This latest book from the national conference speaker, facilitator, and human resource coach sheds new light on the world of trauma and how individuals, as well as organizations, can best address tragedies in their lives and workplaces. You will share Alicia's experience and, hopefully, learn that any human being can help another person heal from a trauma and regain their footing at work and in life.

Book excerpt: In 2013 his girlfriend at the time accused him of sexual assault. This accusation came amid surmounting pressure from Congressional leaders to curb sexual assault in the military. This environment was a product of the release of the 2012 documentary The Invisible War, which highlighted a "rape culture in the military," and created a situation where senior military leaders were focused on eliminating the "hook-up culture" from the Air Force. The filmmakers of The Invisible War credit the documentary for popularizing the #Me Too movement. Despite the fact that the relationship itself was consensual, and there was not a single piece of evidence to suggest that he committed the crimes for which he was accused, he was convicted and sentenced to 30 years in prison. This journal details the injustice of the investigation, arrest, pretrial, trial, and conviction of an Invisible Casualty.
