Book excerpt: Feminism emerged as a boon for women, but we are clueless that it has become a curse for men. The journey of battling discrimination, sexual assault, harassment, and challenges faced by women in the past has led us to unequal justice for men in the modern world. It was a privilege to be a man in the old days, but is this still the case today? If you are a man in today's world, you have probably heard women say, "Your life is easy." The entire world is battling for women's rights, but what about men? Why do parents lie to their children even when they know that a 9-to-5 job would not make them happy? Why is the government allowing harmful products and services? Why is the law treating men unequally? Why aren't we taught how to get rich in school? Why is the divorce rate increasing? Why is infidelity on the rise? If you're seeking answers, this is the book to read. One of the most comprehensive disciplinary guides on how to become a valued, respected, and great person in life. This book is a comparison of the West and India; it illustrates how western culture has influenced India and how it is slowly destroying our culture and country. "Men, women, and society: The untold stories of truths and lies about the modern world" will entirely liberate your mind and open your eyes to the realities of the news, media, government, and elites, who are attempting to distract you from the truth and kill your will to understand and win in the world.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1989, this book provides a comprehensive introduction to the study of the victims of crime and the way in which they are treated in society generally, and in the criminal justice process in particular. The study of victims of crime is important to academics, the wider community of policy initiation and implementation, and to the political arena.

Download or read book The Routledge International Handbook on Fear of Crime written by Murray Lee and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-12-01 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Routledge International Handbook on Fear of Crime brings together original and international state of the art contributions of theoretical, empirical, policy-related scholarship on the intersection of perceptions of crime, victimisation, vulnerability and risk. This is timely as fear of crime has now been a focus of scholarly and policy interest for some fifty years and shows little sign of abating. Research on fear of crime is demonstrative of the inter-disciplinarity of criminology, drawing in the disciplines of sociology, psychology, political science, history, cultural studies, gender studies, planning and architecture, philosophy and human geography. This collection draws in many of these interdisciplinary themes. This collections also extends the boundaries of fear of crime research. It does this both methodologically and conceptually, but perhaps more importantly it moves us beyond some of the often repeated debates in this field to focus on novel topics from unique perspectives. The book begins by plotting the history of fear of crime’s development, then moves on to investigate the methodological and theoretical debates that have ensued and the policy transfer that occurred across jurisdictions. Key elements in debates and research on fear of crime concerning gender, race and ethnicity are covered, as are contemporary themes in fear of crime research, such as regulation, security, risk and the fear of terrorism, the mapping of fear of crime and fear of crime beyond urban landscapes. The final sections of the book explore geographies of fear and future and unique directions for this research.

Download or read book Public Confidence in Criminal Justice written by Elizabeth R. Turner and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-12-04 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this book, Liz Turner argues that survey methods have gained an unwarranted and unhealthy level of dominance when it comes to understanding how the public views the criminal justice system. The focus on measuring public confidence in criminal justice by researchers, politicians and criminal justice agencies has tended to prioritise the production of quantitative representations of general opinions, at the expense of more specific, qualitative or deliberative approaches. This has occurred not due to any inherent methodological superiority of survey-based approaches, but due to the congruence of the survey-based, general measure of opinion with the prevailing neoliberal political tendency to engage with citizens as consumers. By identifying the historical conditions on which contemporary knowledge claims rest, and tracing the political power struggles out of which sprang the idea of public confidence in criminal justice as a real and measurable object, Turner shows that things could be otherwise. She also draws attention to the ways in which survey researchers have asserted their dominance over other approaches, suppressing convincing claims by advocates of deliberative methods that a better politics of crime and justice is possible. Ultimately, Turner concludes, researchers need to be more upfront about their political objectives, and more alert to the political responsibilities that go along with the making of knowledge claims. Providing a provocative critique of the dominant approaches to measuring public confidence, this timely study will be of special interest to scholars of the criminal justice system, research methods, and British politics.
